Spec me an unreliable PC :D

DJ XS · 19 Nov 2008 at 13:03

So, everyone has had the spec me a PC thread in their time.

However after a conversation in the office today we thought it would be funny to have a spec with some of the worst components people have had experience with

Have fun ;p

Some of them are very good

I'll say - certain models of ECS or PC Chips motherboards...

Grade B Hazro, old stock.

Not a bad idea, at least people know what to avoid

Asus or DFI motherboard
Qtek or Hiper PSU
Hitachi HD
Powercolor GFX
Thermaltake cooler/psu/case

Whatever do you mean Duke? My Qtec was nice and reliable, it only took out 3 hard disks in two and a half years

1) Hmm...Pentium 4 D with stock cooler?
2) Creative X-Fi? :eek:

Asus Motherboards... :confused:

Pilky01 · 19 Nov 2008 at 14:09

Asus make some of the best motherboards you can buy.

+1... had 3 seperate systems each with an ECS board... they all now have Abit boards!!.

You're going to want Windows ME to get the worst out of that system. But if you already have a Windows 95 disc, that will do.

Nothing wrong with Crucial Ram in terms of reliability.

But yes to Hiper PSUs!!! Happy times with Hiper explosive psu threads

Rroff · 19 Nov 2008 at 15:25

Q-Tec PSU
Crucial Ballistix
Asus P5N32-E SLI
Older WD or Maxtor HDDs (can't really get them any more)
Bit stuck for a CPU as most recent ones have been really good
