Hi all.
I'm not sure if this has been asked before hand and apologies if it has but could you post what your current PC spec is and if you were able to afford a change what it would be. I don't want this to be about who has the badest/over priced spec as we all get what we can afford and need. i'm just curious what everybody has.
For me, my last PC was over 12 years out until the MB went bang. I had an Intel Q9450 running at 4GHz. I had a pair of GTX8800 in SLI. The motherboard was a P5N-D. Nothing special but adequate enough at the time for gaming and Uni work. I had two HDD and both were standard Western Digitals and the system had 16GB Ram. It was running on a 800W PSU air cooled in a Coolermaster S case. There were 8 case fans and the system ran pretty much 24/7 at the time. I was running two Asus Monitors. A VW222s and a VE247. I donated both to a local charity.
I'm currently using a Dell E6420 laptop although I have upgraded it with an SSD and doubled the Ram. I was very close to getting the Germanium with some subtle tweaks but was advised to wait on the new CPUs/GPUs. Since then I've continued to browse the posts on here and watch plenty of YT reviews and am now dithering between the Germanium and the Titan Shikra. I've asked already on the Germanium thread but generally speaking when do OCUK update the pre built specs for systems like the Germanium/Shikra. Does anybody who has been a long term member know this ?
Anyway back to my reason for this thread, please kindly post your specs ? It would be interesting to see what you have. If you have multiple PC then only the main PC would be sufficient.
