Somehow, I doubt very much, that you are going to get a representative view of the hardware in PC land... :wub:

 

But anyway:

 

2.8 Ghz P4 (800Mhz FSB), 2 Gb pc3200 mem on an Asus p4p800 deluxe board(hyperthreading), GeForce FX5900 w. 256 mb mem, 1 80 Gb system disk and 2 120 Gb in a raid 0 (sigh, I really need more disks...), Soundblaster Audigy II and my trusty old Hauppauge tv/radio/ttv card (for watching tv on my computer) and one region free dvd drive and one region 1 dvd burner (that way, I can watch both international dvd's as well as those US ones that checks for RPC1 drives) <_>

 

Way too many peripherals to fit into one room, 5.1 speakers, drawing pad, joystick etc. :(

I almost gaurantee I wont, because I don't want to do a national poll. Still why not have a sampling of the board members.

I have a joystick, a cassete reader, and a rearview mirror taped to a rock. Fear my 133t hardware.

I think my favorite part of it is the 500 watt modded Power Supply though. :D

A thousand chinese kids to whom I teach the binary data of each game and have them speak it out whenever I wish to play games. I then proceed to interpret the chorus of 0s and 1s into a single, coherent and enjoyable experience.

 

"Hey, how do I overclock my CPU safely?"

 

Well, unless you're going to be upping the voltages, it's pretty damn safe. Just go to BIOS and OC it, run 3dmark and check the heats afterward.

9/30 -- NEVER FORGET!

Chances are running an AMD you won't be able to without changing the voltages.

Except for some of the Barton chips AMD locks their multipiers. Also with what some unscrupulous venders did when they unlocked them for a bit you robably wont see that happen again for some time. Barton core is the 2500 and up. I must say though I know someone who got a 2600 with unlocked multipliers and runs it a 3000XP speeds with no lock ups or crashes.

I got my Barton Core 2500+, locked multiplier, up to 3200+ speeds, no lockups or crashes. Ph34r my 1337 skills biznatch. :) All you really need is a good MOBO, and alot of trial and error. I recommend the DFI Lanparty Ultra B, as that's what I have, and comes with just about everything you could want on it. Plus a BIOS that has a bunch of special overclocking features, including the ability to save up to ten CPU settings. :p
