O.o nice rigs. Im running a ... damnit where did that window go... (CPUZ)
AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile TL (1900.4 MHz [pushed it up to 4 though])
GeForce 7000M (yes this is a laptop)
2Gig ram [dimm] (sorry i dont know the specs on that)
and a Fuquene motherboard made by Acer

Its powerfull enough to play Bioshock, but it stopped running :( . Still more than enough to play Onlink without a problem.

Soul? Who cares about soul when I can run Far Cry 2 on ultra with 80 FPS?

I barely play the game, but who cares!

Y'know, running an online game through Obsidian Portal would be pretty cool. My books need to be put to use, anyhow...

@Topic: Not sure if I mentioned this before, but I got a Zalman heatsink/fan. Specifically, the CNPS 9700 NT. It is awesome. Everyone should get a Zalman fan (unless they've got something better). It dropped my core temp from around 60 degrees Celsius to the lower 30s. (Previously I had the stock heatsink that came with my core. With both heatsinks I used Arctic Silver thermal grease.)

You all have such good Computers :/.

My Desktop is a old one.

Athlon XP 2800+
1 Gig Ram
2x80 Gig in Raid 0
ATI Radeon 9700 Pro
MSI Motherboard

Yeah back in the years this baby rocked hard :), fast in loading things and really good grafics but now ...

My Laptop is a Samsung X20

Intel Celeron 1800
2 Gig Ram
80 Gig
ATI X700 Mobility

All not the best :) but Onlink is going wild on this to machines.

But I am thinking of buying a new one, but I am not really sure if it will be a good Laptop with docking station or a new Desktop...

I nearly bought the Zalman. I instead went for the Noctua, because it is better overall plus can have 2x 120mm fans in push/pull. Only thing is it doesn't look as good.

Case: Antec 300
Motherboard: GA-EX58-UD3R
Processor: Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz
Graphics card: (2x) ATI Radeon HD 5770CF
Hard drive: Samsung Spinpoint F1 500GB
Optical drive:LG DVD+/RW DL 22x
Memory: Corsair 3x2 GB DDR3 1333MHz
Power supply: Corsair 650HX

It's a nice setup, although I deeply, deeply, DEEPLY regret buying that crossfire piece of bullshit. I'm getting horrible framerates horribly at pretty much everything. I can always hope ATI will one day release decent drivers for it, but I'm afraid Fermi will be released before that. Might as well get one of those by then.

It wasn't over a year old, it was two weeks shy, so it's good. If it had been two weeks later, though, ohhhh boy.

How is the Phenom, by the way? I've not heard much on it (though I've only heard good things about Intel's Core i7).

@Mursu: Hmm, I've been thinking of setting up a rig with a pair of 5870s. A friend of mine bought a single 5870 (at my recommendation) and it just screams along beautifully. But is Crossfire that terribly supported?

Basically, you can run pretty much anything at the highest possible settings with a single 5870, and since the drivers simply suck, the little improvement you would get over a single 5870 is not really worth it.

If you have nothing against:
A) Flushing every now and then by using alt-tab and running at about 20fps for a few minutes before getting decent frame rates
B) Experiencing completely random and inexplicable crashes while running stuff at full screen (unconfirmed, possibly happens when windowed as well, I have yet to experience that though)
C) Having to un/reinstall your drivers several times in weird ways in order to update them
D) Paying ~350€ for very little actual performance improvement

...then go ahead and buy a CF. I'll just tag along with this piece of shit and wait for the Fermi. I will NEVER. EVER. touch ATI again.

Sidenote: It's not just the CF, as far as I know all ATI's new cards have issues, thanks to the crappy drivers, but CF has even more of them.

Oh it's a beast. Perfect for Dolphin Emulation... *cough*

Besides that, equipped with a 9500 GT, I can squeeze about 35 FPS from Crysis on Very High on the lowest resolution.
