Ah well, to fill up the forum with more useless content, here's my PC specs ;-)

AMD Athlon64 Venice core at stock 1.8GHz, scythe ncu-3000 monster heatpipe.
Gigabyte K8NF-9 motherboard. Chipset runs pretty hot.
3GB DDR-400 RAM (2x512MB + 2x1GB)
Gigabyte GF 6600 non-GT 256MB PCE-E 16x heatpipe, no fan.
1 120GB Seagate 7200.7 P-ATA suspended with rubber bands
1 320GB Seagate 7200.9 S-ATA mounted on acoustic foam
Nec 3540A optical drive
Antec SLK3000 case lined with acoustic foam, Seasonic S12 430W PSU
Air cooled by three (including PSU fan) 120mm case fans (cpu idle/load temp 28/33C),
The only audible noise in the system is made by the ESI Juli@ sound card
Logitech flat keyboard, prefer the action and lack of height compared to the Keytronics KT-2000 I used previously.
Copperhead, mousepad is a hard plastic-on-neoprene thingy that's at least 10 years old.
LG L2000C 20" LCD 1600x1200 (S-IPS, proper 8 bit, 8ms)
17" ADI 5GT 1600x1200 CRT from '98 with dying electronics. Still hooked up, but not used anymore.
DSL 8/1 Mbit/s connection. Ping was very low until they replaced the modems in the switching station a couple of months ago.
Linux (ubuntu edgy + custom...)
No printer!

In response to all the power rigs, might I say that my lightweight laptop...

2 GBs DDRII RAM
Core Duo (1.6 ghz)
Windows XP Media Center (HEAVILY optimized and meticulously maintained.)
Intel Integrated 950 Chipset (256 megs shared video RAM)

...actually runs the newest edition of Nexuiz very comfortably on default settings. The previous release sucked - I usually had about 15 FPS with EVERYTHING turned off - but this new one is speedy and runs great.

CPU: AMD Sempron 64 3400+ (Stock: 2,0GHz, Over Clocked: 2,38GHz)
Mainboard: EPoX EP-8NPA SLi
Soundcard: Soundblaster Live! 24-bit
RAM: 1GB 300MHz
Monitor: Samsung SyncMaster 206BW (20", 1680x1050 native resolution, widescreen, 2ms response time, DVI connection between the PC)
Video Card: 2x NVIDIA GeForce 6600GT, SLI linked together. (AFR) 128MB VRAM
PSU: 500 Watt Nexus, SLI-Ready
Harddisks: Both are seagate. One is 80GB which I use for the root filesystem, and the other one is 120GB which I use for the /home folder. Pretty handy in case I really screw up the system, where I only need to format the root fs and keep all of my old settings, documents, downloads, map projects and other files in /home and they are usable right after the first boot.
Case cooler: *Erhm* I've detatched the 120mm case cooler from the back of the case and *Cough* just loosely put it next to the two *Ahem* passively cooled video cards. (Which now idle at 55 degrees instead of 70 like they used to. :P
Case: Antec Sonata II which I've painted some ugly flames on. Oh and by the way, I have no case door attached to the case, because I wanted the hot air from the GPU to blow right out of the case and this seems to work pretty well. (It's just my room getting close to 30 degrees hot after for example cl_capturing a video with full effects.)
Keyboard: Saitek Eclipse keyboard (Illuminated)
Mouse: Logitech MX518
Mousepad: Unknown brand, low friction teflon mousepad. Pretty huge surface
Operating system: Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon (2 days till it's not beta anymore!)


The 4 last properties, and of course the monitor, those are the only things I'm happy with in this... umm... *Thinks for another hour to find something offensive to say... ... rubbish bin! Yeah! :twisted:

It shouldn't take too long until I have yet another new PC and this thing will be working as a server for some random crap... :>

Frag ya' later! ^^

I have an Intel iMac, which is:

CPU: 2GHz Intel Core Duo
RAM: 2GB
Graphics: ATI Radeon X1600 w/ 256MB
I usually go with the Low quality settings and get about 100 fps. On many maps, I can get away with Medium quality, but don't want to have to switch back and forth when a new map loads.

I'm using a 5 button mouse and a standard keyboard. My mouse driver is called SteerMouse. If you have a Mac, you need something like this to give you the best control over mouse settings.

I feel like I could use more mouse buttons, so I'm checking on 72 button mices. Well, maybe less than 72, but I need a lot.

My main rig's configuration at the uni can be found here http://www.forums.alientrap.local/viewtopi ... =7942#7942

Only change that I've thrown out the 10GB disk (into "lair" ), and now I only have one disk, and I have debian only.

I have an other little pc too at home, but I don't know the exact config of it, but some info can be found about it in the performance section here.
