    How old your current computer?

    Mine is three year, still fast enough. Her name is "Vanessa", yeah my second girlfriend :-)

    One year ago i already upgrade her bios for better compatibility, and this year maybe i will upgrade her ram.

    "Bumblebee," and prolly around a year. Too lazy to go dig up the Newegg invoice.

    And no not after the Transformer; after the insect, cause of the bright yellow and black case.



    Prolly gunna rename it Hornet once my tax refund does its job though - motherboard, cpu, and ram are getting a complete replacement with a new SLI enabled mobo (only cause it happened to do the rest I need it too, handy to have though), quad core AMD (couldn't find a mobo/cpu combo that was quad core that I liked that I could snag with the refund), and 4gb dual channel ram. Might do 8 right off the bat if I'm feelin' spendy.



    And if I've got the $ I'm repairing MediaBox, pretty sure I blew out the PSU but if that doesn't fix it, then MediaBox is going to get the entrails of Bumblebee spliced in so it lives again


    (Mediabox is probably closer to 3-4 years old, single core 1.67ghz cpu, overkill for what I'm having it do)


    TOS breakers will be suspended regardless of race, creed, national origin, hair color, or favorite food. Thanks for your understanding!

    My is a Compaq Presario (dont remember the model #), made in 2004

    It have a Celeron 2.7Ghz single core, 1GB of ram, 1 80GB hard drive with linux, dual booted with a 40gb hard drive with XP, a POS intel integrated 845G video card, motherboard does not have a AGP or PCIe slot so i'm screwed.

    My current computer is a little over a year old, however due to me upgrading it all the time it can be considered a week or two old :P

    My desktop is about 2 months away from being 10 years old. Still works most of the time, too.

    1 and a half year.

    I need a new computer now that can handle 3D animation and rendering, because this one BSoDs all the time, but I am nowhere from affording it
