Title: Computer Specs
Post by: Ikkerens on February 16, 2011, 03:46:52 am
I'm sorry if there is already a thread like this, but I couldn't find it.
Well, I thought, why not post our computer specs (so, not your calc's) (no, really, don't) (I'm serious!)

*Windows 7 - 64 Bit
*Tower: Cooler Master HAF 922
*Processor: AMD FX-8150 3.60GHz 8MB
*Ram: 6 x G.Skill Ripjaws F3-12800CL7T2-24GBRMD (24gb kit)
*Graphics Card: 2 x XFX Radeon HD 5970 Black Edition Limited (CrossFire)
*Mother Board: Asus Crosshair IV Formula
*Power Supply: Innovatek Cool-Power Pro 850W
*Storage: Seagate Constellation ES.2 ST33000651NS, 3TB
*Storage 2 (SSD): OCZ SATA II 2.5" SSD 400GB

*Windows 7 Home Premium - 64 bit
*Processor: Intel Core i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80 GHz
*RAM: 8 GB DDR3
*Graphic Card: Nvidia Ge-Force GT 230 with 1.5 GB of video memory
*1 GB internal HDD and 2 GB external

Holy crap at your RAM! O.O

Btw to give an idea of the performances of mine, Starcraft II runs at 40 FPS at 1920x1080 with shading at medium and everything else maxed out, but with shading/lights at ultra I get between 13 and 20 FPS depending of the map. Crysis will run at 4 FPS maxed out, but 20 with medium shading. I guess my graphics card is quite weak on the shaders side, although not as much as what I used to have. Old games like Audiosurf and Unreal Tournament 2004 will run at 90 ish FPS even at max settings.

Is it dual or quad core? Single core nowadays must be hectic, although if it's not bloated with softwares and viruses and you play old games you should be fine. My bro can play Starcraft II at high framerate on his dual core but he has to use minimum settings. Sadly, high end computers cost money X.x

My original PC (3 years ago) :
ASUS Striker Extreme
QX6850 (bought high so I wouldn't have to upgrade it. CPU upgrade is a pain the arse IMO)
4GB DDR2 (800Mhz)
8800GTS
Some crappy 200GB HDD
XP x64

The same PC now:
ASUS Striker Extreme
QX6850
8GB DDR2 (666MHz) the most it will hold and you have to reduce the speed for it (worth it though)
ATI 6970
Same crappy HDD
Same old OS that nevertheless is far less inmyface than W7 (which I dualboot / never use)

Somewhere in between it had a 260GTX

Title: Re: Computer Specs
Post by: Juju on October 27, 2011, 05:38:53 pm
It costed me only $15. So cheap I bought 2 of them. Pentium 4, 1.6 GHz (overclocked to 2.27 GHz), 1.5GB RAM, 3 hard disks (40GB, 30GB, 15GB), nVidia Geforce 4 MX. In fact, I got it with 512MB RAM and the 40GB HD, but I had 1GB RAM, 2 HDs, a 17" wide screen and some other material laying around to complete it.

It depends. Sometimes video memory isn't everything. Some 32 mb cards can run some games that some 128 MB cards can't. For example my old card lacks pixel shader 2.0. My current card (1.5 GB) gives me about 30-50 fps in Starcraft at everything maxed out except shading which is set to medium, but at Ultra I get around 13 fps.

This was supposed to replace my desktop in terms of both power and usage. Ill have to find the specs of my desktop later and post them

I'm only an amateur game developer, but I think a lot of it has to do with the number of unique objects on screen. With more graphics memory, you can have more unique objects cached than if you didn't have very much. In short, modern games like Dirt 3 or RAGE (probably Starcraft II also, but I've never played it) stutter if you don't have enough memory (generally under 512-768Mb, but it varies). The stuttering is different from a poor framerate, because it's just busy loading objects.

Shaders are a different beast altogether, and generally a gpu with more stream processors will be able to handle more advanced shaders.

Ah ok. Yeah I remember on my other card I ran games requiring 128 MB but no specific pixel shading 2.0 and that stuff, and the game would run ok but sometimes it would freeze for a bit then start running fine again.

It really varies. Like you said, a 32Mb card can easily outperform a 128Mb card. With your current card (GT230, 1.5Gb) you can run Starcraft well (because Starcraft needs a powerful CPU and enough memory to store all the objects rendered on screen) but not Crysis (because Crysis has fewer objects and far more advanced shaders) because your card has an abnormally high amount of high-speed memory (1.5Gb) but fewer shader processing cores (GT230 vs. GT280).

My laptop's card (8600GS, 256Mb) can run Crysis okay but Starcraft would NOT run well.

TL;DR: I spend way too much time on this stuff *.*

Title: Re: Computer Specs
Post by: harold on November 07, 2011, 02:33:11 am
Theoretically, but many implementations have internally used fewer bits (48 in the first implementations IIRC), so they actually supported less than 16EB (but still way more than you'll need in this decade)

Possibly, but only when the hardware gets a little more out of date.
I've already bought that computer ( and with it's specs $779.95 CDN is a steal of a deal ), so very soon I'll have a more modern computer then my current Compaq V2000.
The computer I'm getting has only 6GB of ram, but it has two ram slots, so that means it's a 2GB card and a 4GB card so it would be easy to up the amount of ram to 8GB by replacing the 2GB with a 4GB card.
10 hours of battery and unlimited bandwidth on my phone means as long as I'm in the city ( or any other WIND Zone ) I can get on the net :) I just tether to my phone :)
This computer is going to be epic, I can't wait for them to ship it :P ( still waiting for the weekend to be over so they actually ship it ).

Just got my laptop in the past week :)

Dell Inspiron N4110
Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit
Intel Core i3-2330M @2.20GHz
4GB DDR3-10700 SDRAM
Graphics card - Intel HD 3000 (or something like that)
Seagate Momentus 5400.6 ST9500325AS (500GB)

I prolly missed stuff, so I found this (http://www.notebookcheck.net/Dell-Inspiron-14R-N4110-Laptop-Review.70944.0.html) which goes pretty in-depth.


Might upgrade to Ultimate b/c there's the disk lying around somewhere in this house, but I don't feel like reinstalling drivers and stuff and I'll probably take advantage of the Windows 8 for ~$15 thing in a few months anyway.

Question: A few years ago I had a Pentium II which said (under system info) that it was 400 MHz. However, after reformating it it said 350. ??? I had it reformated at a store which installed XP in the process (it was around October 2004) and they upgraded RAM. I do not know if they actually fooled me by replacing my processor with a slower one (which was still Pentium II), although that would have made no sense considering how old Pentium II computers were already, but I was wondering if it is possible for a computer processor to actually decrease in speed or if Windows system info page can mislabel a computer's hardware?

Maybe an underclock or something. I overclocked mine to over 450 MHz once.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 19, 2012, 07:06:24 pm
I wonder why would it self-underclock permanently, though, or why a store clerk would decide to underclock a customer's processor without permission, unless it was overclocked in the first place and the guy thought it would be damaging in long term?

It is possible it was slightly over clocked from the factory within operating specs. When they reset it, it's possible that  they didn't know what they were doing and set it to it's base speed(or whatever software they had did it automatically).

Oh wait it's possible to over/underclock certain processors even without hardware changes? But again the Nspire allows it though.

Indeed it is. Most processor have a certain range within which they can operate fine. AMD even allow you to change the settings yourself often times and has for quite a while. :)

Yeah, I am necroposting, but I have three reasons for that:
-that discussion is interesting
-it's been a year (hence the necropost) so people's computer may have changed so they might want to update their specs
-I got my laptop so I can post something here while I couldn't before (well I could have posted the specs from the desktop, but I have absolutely no idea what's in there)

So, my laptop:
GPU: Geforce GTX 780M 4Go
Screen: 15.6" FullHD 1920x1080 LED
CPU: Intel® i7-4700MQ 4x2 cores 2.4 to 3.4GHz, 6Mo cache, Video GT2 HD4600 VT-x 47Watts (Haswell)
RAM: DDR3 Sodimm 8Go (can be extended to 32Go but I don't need those for now)
HardDrive1: Samsung SSD 840 Pro Series 128Go
HardDrive2: unknown brand, but 1To and 7200rpm

(also, excuse me if I made any mistake on the name of something, or any other English mistake).
