Well its finally time for me to be getting my new cpu. And i made this thread for people to talk about great cpus that people have or want. I dont plan on getting one but my cousin showed me this one cpu/pom pilot he wants to get. Its smaller then a labtop, the screen is 360 degree twistable and it is a cpu and a pom pilot in one.

Sounds really nice. Computer I'm using right now is... about 2-years old I guess, maybe a little less (I share it with the rest of my family though). It has a pretty decent EVERYTHING, EXCEPT for one thing... the video card... it's so crappy its not even funny... and I'd never get my parents to get a new one because a good one could cost I dunno like $30? Probably more... and they'll just say all I need it for is playing games (which is true... heh ;D) and NO. Oh well. |

My computer is around 2 years old and its the "Family" computer but they dont even use it and the only thing wrong with it is that it has a crappy graphics card ;D |

In my comp I have great Ram and Video Card. But only a 1 gig processor. We could only upgrade it buy 300 megahurtz unless we uprage the motherboard itself, and we're kinda hesitant about doing that.

Just to let you know, a decent video card is aporxiamtely $100 I was going to put that but then I'd feel REALLY stupid if someone points out that it's only $5 or something ;D. It doesn't make that much of a difference though... the lag is most notable in shooter games (where i get frames-per-second of like... 10 in firefights... I swear..), but in strategy games (like war3) the rest of my computer makes up for it. The operating system is Windows XP which is good + bad. Good because well... hey, its microsoft, every single program/software is MADE FOR WINDOWS, and XP is the latest version... bad because well... hey, ITS MICROSOFT!! and being the technological dumb*** I am (ok, well I DO exxagerate my lack of knowledge on comps a LITTLE, but I'm still pretty bad at them) and with all the little problems that systems have... grr... I solved one thing recently... I found the debugging thingamajigger in my computer and turned it OFF, so I don't get those annoying messages anymore... ;D |
