My computer is a bunch of crap, with hardly anything working or anything that I need to know about, and I'm still finding it hard to understand................Anyway, this my specs. Compare them..... SPECS: Moniter (crap color display) 1.96 Gig (no space at all compared to what I need) 233 Megahertz (though it runs at like 10 Megahertz! Piece of crap) Sound Card (crackle noise in background, and is stuffing up) Fax Modem (plain sh!t) CD-ROM Drive (supposed to be a 24X MAX, but it runs like a 0.001 MAX) Power Switch (this little switch is supposed to turn the damn thing on!!! But it doesn't even wotk!!!) Scanner (works fine) Printer (works good) Fax (works alright) Mouse (this is broken!) This seems like alot, but it's nothing really!

Was just interested :) UT = Unreal Tournament. I used to play for some of the best clan in the UK, but the level of players dropped(ie cheaters became more common and lame people where everywhere) so I stopped playing serriously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fall Posted November 17, 2001 Share Posted November 17, 2001 How do you tell what your monitor is? Just check your C drive properties and see the MHZ. That's how I knew. But I dunno what UT is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masterfork Posted November 17, 2001 Share Posted November 17, 2001 Thought I might post since you all seem to have some confusion =]. I'm guessing if what you're getting is better than a P4 (which is practically anything) is an Athlon XP. Abit makes motherboards, AMD is making your processor =]. I would go for an Gigabyte motherboard myself, but that's me... With your specs, everything is fine except the video card (the sound card too). Any card with the Kyro chipset is outdated. If you plan to play games, you might as well get a Radeon 8500 or a GeForce 3 Ti-500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Break Posted November 17, 2001 Author Share Posted November 17, 2001 [SIZE=1]That's the one! Athelon XP! I have Windows XP too... I plan to play games yes, does that mean I have to get a Radeon?[/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
