Your Computer
Karranir:
I don't have a picture, but I need to stroke my e-peen. So very, very badly.
Asus A8N-SLI Premium motherboard
AMD FX-57 processor (I bought it the day before the FX-60 came out, I think. I'd swear it wasn't on the market when I purchased this.)
2 gigs of Corsair Twin Platinum memory (DDR400, of course)
Dual 7800 GT OC 256 video cards (PCI-E) in SLI (256 hurts the awesomeness, I know...)
Shitty 160 gig SATA HardDrive (Seagate Barracuda)
Fatal1ty Creative Labs SB X-FI Soundcard
Luke:
Well, our Dell recently hit the fan, so I've been using my Gateway for the internet (and everything else, nurr) until we get the Dell back. I'm running on Windows 2000 SP4, Pentium III, 192mb RAM, 20gb-HDD, and onboard video... I like it because it's old enough to run the older games that I have, but just barely new enough to run Adobe Illustrator CS. I probably won't bother upgrading it.
I'll upload some pictures of it when I get home. I guarantee you that my chassis is better than any of the other ones I've seen in this thread so far.
Solstice:
This is way late to the party, I know, but here we go anyways.
Mine:
'scuse the mess. ;)
I built it ahh like almost 2 years ago I think. Its an AMD Barton AthlonXP 2500+ but she clocks in at 2.2ghz (3200+ speeds). Asus A7N8X-Deluxe mobo, 1 gig of Corsair PC3200 (DDR400) RAM, Radeon 9700 Pro, DVD, CDRW, 2HDs (300+gigs of space and its damn near full, WTF?) 19 inch Viewsonic, Logitech mouse (MX500), keyboard, and speakers (5.1 surround), blah blah blah. Its pretty good. Will probably need replaced by the end of this year though. My wallet is weeping already :(
Annd my Parents:
Whee! Its a cute little Antec Aria (SFF) I put together for my folks and sister. Its suprisingly close to my own rig too. Similar mobo (I forget the designation but its basically the A7N8X small form factor), processor (a 2500 pushed to 2.15ghz), vid card (Radeon 9600 Pro), gig of RAM (cheap stuff though ;)), a DVD burner, my old Logitech 4.1 surround, and various other parts (monitor mouse etc) cannibalized from past computers. Its really nice actually, I like it.
Actually I'm not sure if I want a SFF for myself or not. They're cute as hell and save tons of space, but they tend to limit your selection of parts. I don't mind having a tower (especially one with a window and LIGHTS WOO!) so i'll likely stick with them for the time being.
edscoble:
it's not often i says this but that's a real nice looking case actually.
Solstice:
The Aria? It is indeed sextastic. Especially with the blue lights... unfortunatly you cant see them in that shot because a) the HD activity light isn't on (its blue!), and B) both trough lights have burnt out in a year (my only complaint, really), but they do glow a very pretty blue. Here's a promo shot of the case with the trough lights on:
Its really nice to work with too. The top comes off and both side panels (the grey things) slide out, and theres a cradle assembly in the top of the case (it holds the CD drive and HD bay) that lifts out. The biggest challange is sealing the thing up once you're all done, because you've got to make sure all the cables are folding the right way as you close it. Very first time I booted it I actually had a spare end of an IDE cable fall INTO the CPU fan. I heard a *clunk* as the fan hit it, and then the nice panic-inducing "CPU FAN ERROR" message on the monitor. But I got it tucked away properly and she all went fine. Oh, and speaking of fans its a suprisingly quiet case too. I've got four fans in this one (CPU, vid card, a PCI slot blower, and the HUGE honkin 90mm power supply/main vent fan) and shes just a whisper. Also, the 8-in-1 card reader (the goofy slots on the front) are slick too. You can stuff damn near any kind of memory card from a digital cam or PDA or a million other electronic gizmos into the thing.
Really nice case. :)
