    Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 Yorkfield 2.83GHz LGA 775 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor BX80569Q9550

    CORSAIR XMS2 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model TWIN2X4096-6400C5

    Western Digital Caviar Blue WD6400AAKS 640GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

    ASUS VW246H Glossy Black 24" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor


    I have Two 24" monitors (although only 1 set up currently via swivel arm).

    I have a Logitech 5.1 speaker system that I bought years ago.

    HP Printer (lol)

    Wireless Mouse/Keyboard ($80 Microsoft Combo) but it's infared which sucks balls and need to upgrade to a bluetooth that doesn't need lineo f site.

    $69 Belkin Wireless signal receiver.

    500 WD MyBook External hard drive.

    I have 3 hard drives internal that are in RAID0 array.

    I have 8GB of DDR800 RAM (no need for overclocked RAM, just a waste of money), still waiting for 16GB modules now that I am on x64 :-\.

    It's not too bad. I paid $1,300 for it all (minus one monitor which I bought later) and the thing is a beast that would crush most $2,000 PC's you would be able to buy from manufactures. I don't plan to upgrade until another generation or two of Nvidia cards (GT4xx sucks for the price), nor will I upgrade my Quad Core which is useless for most apps until 12-16 cores are in the $200 range (probably 4-5 years). The thing I will most likely upgrade next is hard drives when the 4TB ones come out in the Winter/Early 2011 and set that bitch in a RAID because 1080p Movies are fucking eating up space like crazy.

    This. 8 gigs per movie adds the fuck up.

    That's pretty much the sole reason I bought the 1.5 TB external. I bought it two months ago and it's 90% full with movies music and games.

    The Seagate is an external hard drive set up through eSATA. I guess it shows up as an IDE device.

    Everything else is SATA.

    Ah, but why so slow DDR2 RAM? and those video cards look kinda warm.

    My specs aren't too impressive, however I like my netbook way too much to get a big ass laptop again. It's just a stock eeePC 1005pe with these upgrades.

    2Gb DDR2 667MHz
    Seagate 7200rpm 500Gb HDD

    It's quite fast graphics-wise for a netbook, no doubt because the combo CPU/AGP. Photoshop runs fine.

    Here's some specs I took a while back. Only thing which has changed since then is that I have added a second monitor.

    ...but on a serious note, ever since Apple made the switch from IBM to Intel based processor design they've got some pretty powerful specs. It's just a shame you have to pay a 25-50% mark up price than the same system from a PC vender and nearly 100% more than if you built it yourself.

    Still, 27" monitor. I'm fucking jealous. 23" is starting to feel small and soon I'll just have to upgrade to a 40" TV at this rate. Damn eyes screwing with your vision when you're on a computer 18 hours a day.

    Aha!

    At first it looked huge, but it's 'meh' now. Pretty sweet when friends come over.

    HOLY shit! That's huge.

    Yeah, it's ok.

    Some random Acer SFF thingy with:

    Pentium 3 800MHz
    512MB PC133 SDRAM
    20GB "Noisy as hell" seagate 5400 rpm IDE HDD
    22" Samsung LCD display (taken from my gaming system)
    XP PRO

    I put this system together specialy for the hot weather the last weeks, my other systems gets overheated and bring my computer room to unacceptable temperatures.

    My normal system is:

    i5 750
    4GB DDR3
    ATI 5770
    1TB HDD
    22" Samsung LCD
    XP PRO 64bit

    Thinking of getting a pair of 32" full HD TVs too for some 3 screen awesomeness, but unfortunately im a bit too low on cash atm. :(
    Another 4GB of RAM and a few more TB of storage is probably higher on my to-do list.

    i5 and blu-ray for $500. Not the greatest resolution, but I like to watch blu-ray on my tv via hdmi out. Ended up being a nice laptop for the money.

    OC'd the i7 930 to 3.96 but temps are getting a little hot for me under full prime95 testing. I could probably tweak it some and get the voltage down and keep the same clock, but i'm moving to watercooling in a few weeks. Think I might do a 2nd loop and get a GPU waterblock as well, the 5970 fan sounds like a jet when turned up substantially, and I want to overclock her too.
