pentium III 533
256 MB SDRAM
40GB 5600 RPM Maxtor HDD
80GB 7200 RPM Western Digital HDD
48X16X40 CD-RW Phillips
Creative 40X CD-ROM <== free.. i ripped it from a computer on the side of the street.. :)
Creative PCI Sound Blaster Sound Card
19" CRT Monitor <== thinking of getting a flat soon
my favorite component in my hard drive is my RJ-12 jack. that connects to my stereo system, and i don't have to say anything more. blasting music on my stereo. screw pc speakers. hhahahaa
things i may be getting l8r on .. (not all, but it doesn't hurt to hope) :
-a flat monitor
-PCI 64 MB / 128 MB video card (because i am on an integrated 4 MB, and i want to whip it for freezing out on me all the time.. i may get the on board memory card to save my RAM)
-a better fan ..
**why am i wasting all my money upgrading, when i can just buy a new pc ??? :nervous: :nervous:
p.s.. didn't you make a thread about buying a new computer for yourself not too long ago??? and then we had the dispute over self-made computers vs. dell computers ??? and i supported self-made over dell, because of it's flexibility.. |
I guess you wouldn't say much negative about PC speakers if you had what I have: Logitech Z-680 (I think... 400-watt subwoofer, 100 W in the rest of the system (5 speakers)). |

all those other lame "suped up" PCs are as ugly and outdated as a ricer honda :rolleyes: |

i dont think its fair to compare custom built computers with barestock apple laptops. thats just like saying anything that anyone builds from scratch is lame depending on what you describe as suped up
if anything is lame.. its people posting in here that have absolutely nothing to add to the topic. |

actually you are right LOLS thats how long since I've upgraded my video card. Believe me, I built my AMD approximately 2yrs ago and haven't looked at building another machine until the past 3 weeks ago. The MOBO I was running fried and in the process of fixing it, I just thought it was time to build an Intel machine. I was in AWE when I saw heatsinks for video cards and cooling fans/cases for HDDs. So yea I was pretty out of date until I read up on building my P4. Trust me pandora's box in full effect.

There will always be someone thinking this where ever you go. The comparison to ricer honda's will forver be lived. What the problem here is, is that this guy hasn't read anyone's real "specs" He's categorized all modified/built computers (assuming/generalizing) that we've all put LED Fans, Side Window Cases, and Neon Lights inside our computers. More of that "I don't want to read what you are posting so I'll just call you a wannabe suped up ricer honda ala your computer". Ignorance I tell you. To be honest, I spent over 1.5k on my computer and there isn't anything alluding to "rice" except for the BLUE LED associated with my power switch. Do some research before you talk "Silverstone Temjin Black Full ATX" Go to newegg and spend some quality time learning about something useful. And btw - Silverstone is a new company comprised of engineer's who had all left Coolermaster and has developed their own company. They've made some of the most quality cases I've seen out.
As for the ricer honda comment - I drive an 05 WRX STi Aspen White, does that consider me a ricer honda? Does having a FMIC, VF34, AccessPort w/MAPs, Perrin UP+DP, TurboXS Turboback, Defi D-Link Amber on Amber gauges all consider me to be a ricer? I think not. I hate that generalization people love and has been accustom to throwing around. Do some damn homework and know what you sayin before you open your damn MOUTH! Damn Wanker! |
