Certainly not the best, but it meets my basic computer needs: internet and writing. Civ2 runs smoothly on it as well. Civ3 don't though

Full specs for mine
Athlon XP 2200+ Not quite 2ghz but I got it on the cheap, so it doesn't matter.
Geforce4 ti4200, 128mb. Gainward Golden Sample is the best! I got it for free anyway; (review copy thats been hanging around for ages, one of the bonuses of freelancing for magazines).
256mbs of pc2700 DDR Ram (not the best, but ram is getting expensive again).
Audigy Platnium, cheaper than getting a hi-fi and just as good.
Ok, no doubt Asher will pick me up on the parts I got, but all I know is that at the moment I'm running two games of Europa Universalis 2, as well as winamp, IE and Empire Earth, without any slowdown.Res ipsa loquiturComment

Just bought 1.8aGH Celeron, because they are cheaper.
Old computer 500mH, still older computer use to be 200mH with upgrade processor, but it burned up or something, so stuck with the original AMD suppose to be 166mH, think its a 133mH, (bought used) but actually runs at 114mH. But its fine for games like old dos X-COM's and Ages of Empires which only require a 90mH computer in the first place. (or less in the case of X-COM original game - UFOefense).
Had to fix the fan on the old old computer, took around 8 hours to put Windows 98SE on it, sure is slow.Comment

You're having a laugh right? Not even the teeniest amount of criticism?

Nope, looks good to me. It's actually extremely similar to my gaming rig."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

I benched that on 40.41, it's on 40.72 now.
Did your friend overclock anything? Video/systembus/proc/memory?
My results are above average from what I've seen on the ORB."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

I think he had the 2200+ @ 166xSomething=2200+. I have heard the mark likes fsb but you have ti4600 so that evens it out I guess. I asked some time ago him to run it 133xSomething=2200+ because I was interested in it too. He still hasn't

After 10K it seems 3DMark is VERY much CPU/memory bound. I overclocked my GF4 Ti4600 to 330 core/730 memory and I only gained like 200 points."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
