Chris Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Nice. Shame about the processor though seriously it's kinda slow today. Also how much MB memory does the gfx card have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1 Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 Well the processor came with the motherboard, (BIO start k7) it was brand new, and best of all it was FREE,I managed to score 2 gfx cards the geforce 5500 and an nvidia asylum(free also)(has 256 ram) i cant remember what the one in my comp has but I know its more than the asylum, its not the best comp in the world but its the first one ive bult from the ground up and it beats the hell out of my old dell. But, the true glory of my comp lies within all of the software that it has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slayer Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 Also how much MB memory does the gfx card have? That's the least important thing anyway. 256 can handle 1280x1024 with no prob. Even 128 will be enough if he runs at 1024x768. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1 Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 I am making sure I'm getting all I can from this sucker, shes overclocked like a sum bitch . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheelman101 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 now i wanna see how San Andreas look like on that comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy vercetti guy Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 how much did it all cost? Your processor could be better. Buy another 1 GB ram stick And GTA SA graphics can be easily maxed, becuase they suck. $500 dells can max the settings no problem. I wanna see Half Life 2 HDR with your PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 AMD Sempron 2200+, MMX, 3DNow, ~1.5GHzNVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 Ew... Sorry. That machine is gross. FX 5500?

Take in to account that i have been collecting parts for a year, most of this stuff was free . The only thing i paid for is the sound blaster cards and the case >=D Nvidia pwns...

Sherman Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Pretty good to be a mostly free computer. Since you're rather close (I'd say >100 miles) you can send me your old one right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. Pretty good in my opinion but like Chris82 said it's 3 years old. I got an older one but it's pretty good. A AMD Athron XP AN35N 400. So yours is way better than mine lol. And Chris82, that comp you talked about is your dream pc right lol, ya that's a kickass cop. But ya, mine have neon blue and red lights which look awesome. And one side has an invisable wall so I can see what's inside my comp. I'm gonna post a pic of it when I get a digital camera. Good work man...
