Since this weekend I’ve assembled my new PC after it being in boxes for a few days. I simply didn’t have the space to do it.
I bought a new one because the old one started crashing a lot … in the end Windows wouldn’t even boot and I worked on my laptop for over a week. It’s amazing how much more you do around/in the house when you don’t have a working computer 😉
Specs of the new one:
- Intel Core2 Duo E8400 (3GHz), Zalman cooler
- 2x 2GB DDR2
- Asus P5Q-WS mainboard
- 2x 250GB WD SATA HD on 3Ware 9500S
- Geforce 9600GT 512MB Zilent
- Lian-Li PC60 Silver case
- Plextor 16x DVD-ROM
- NEC 16x DVD-RW with Lightscribe
- Hauppauge WinTV PCI (Almost 10 years old!)
- 2x Samsung Syncmaster 920N 19" TFT
Should be OK for the upcoming years, and the upcoming GTA IV, I hope 😀
(And the first game I’m going to play on it is… OpenTTD, yay for such power hungry apps :D)
