Mana 3,867 #2 Posted March 28, 2008 LITE-ON Black dvd burner/etc drive with LightScribe - super fast drive, burns dvds at 48X The max write speed for DVDs is 16/20x .It's a problem with the disc getting too wobbly for the laser to read it. Hah Apple Logo on your case. Now you can legally install Mac Os on it. Seeing as the Computer is Apple Branded. That shouldn't break their Eula . I will be posting my specs later.

DarkClaw 0 #3 Posted March 29, 2008 I'd like to post my current computer's specs, as it would be fun, but since I have a shitty computer right now, probably shittier than Draco's or Mana's Laptop (Mana, you have a laptop right? With wireless?), so I don't want to face public humiliation. If you want to guess some of the stuff inside, here are 2 pics that might help. By the way, the comp was in my Mom's room when I took the pictures, that's why there's lame bed covers . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkClaw 0 #5 Posted April 3, 2008 That's a nice keyboard you got there Nihility, just noticed it. Too bad it would never fit on my desk with the special gaming keys. Oh, and... it doesn't look as if your CPU heatsink has a fan. Is it hidden or is there just no fan and it's passively cooled? Just wondering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nihility 0 #6 Posted April 4, 2008 its a 120 mm 9 blade fan with 6 heat pipes directly over the cpu and surrounded with the heat syncs heres it from the side, http://www.tuniq.com.tw/Cooler%20Info/imag..._tower_fans.jpg it cools like a BEAST i run it at 1,000 rpm's but it can go up to 2500 and i never go more than 10 degrees over room temp under load (on an OC'd computer too) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The RAM isn't the best, but it can run Crisis on very high at 120000x937890. Not the greatest, but I get by. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rambler 0 #21 Posted April 18, 2008 I'm going to take pictures of my tower, monitor, desk, setup, etc. Today most likely as I just finished a huge assignment. I work while at school, so that's where I get the money to buy this crap. That, and I save like a beast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkClaw 0 #22 Posted April 19, 2008 I think it's time I revealed the shittyness of my PC. Sadness ensues when I reread these hardware specs... but then again, 4 years ago, I could run HL1 at full res with everything on medium-high... but then again, HL1 was released sometime before 2000... CPU: Pentium 4 Prescott 3.0Ghz HT 800Mhz FSB L2 Cache 1MB GPU: NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 AGP 128MB (I don't even need to tell you the rest of this cards specs) RAM: Generic 2*256MB DDR-200 (Timings 2.5-3-3-8 CR1) MB: Asus P4SD-VL 800Mhz FSB Micro-ATX HD: ATA 7200RPM 250GB 2MB Cache Media Readers: 2 ATA CD/DVD Combo Drives, Floppy Drive, 24-1 Card Reader PSU: 300W LCD: 17" (obviously not widescreen) 1280*1024 (I actually don't see why they gave us this monitor, if I use that setting, everything gets a whole lot slower) Other stuff is not really needed to be known. Speakers, optical mouse, keyboard are all the ones that came with the computer. All information was taken from SiSoftware Sandra, a program that analyzes the stuff on your computer and tells you what's inside, useful if you go shopping for computers I found out. Just put it on a USB thumb drive, and without anybody looking, pop it in and check what's inside the machines. Seems like most desktop computer at Staples here still use ATA optical drives and hard drives. X_X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rambler 0 #23 Posted April 19, 2008 I downloaded and installed SiSandra, it's a neat little program. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
