How old is your rig?

Post by SSJVegita0609 » Sat Jul 29, 2006 11:49 pm

What kind of specs are you running on your editting machine/computer in general? With Conroe coming out I'm thinking of an upgrade myself, but it's always interesting to see what kind of hardware the AMV community is sporting these days.
The best effects are the ones you don't notice.

I'm running a machine that is about three years old and just beginning to go haywire (the motherboard is giving out I think...keeps causing random resets).

2.7ghz AMD Athalon processor
2 hard drives- 300GB Hatachi and a 80GB Seagate
128mb graphics- ATI 9250 Radeon
1512mb RAM- 1gb Kingston and 512 PNY
and the all improtant (howbeit, ancient) DVD re0writable by Phillips.

Hodge-podge machine, but whatever works say I.
There is nothing like a moonless night to watch a few AMVs.

Not that this really matters, but you're adding your RAM wrong. Its 1024 + 512 =1536


But I'm running a 5 year old Compaq 2.54 ghz P4
504 megs of RAM (Some of the RAM on the stick is no longer functioning...or it never did, its been like that for so long I don't remember anymore lol)
Some genaric Intel 128 meg Graphics card
108 gig hdd and a 38 gig hdd
CD burner and DVD-rom.
