X Machine In my computer I have an ASUS P4P800, and an Intel Pentium 4 2.4CGHz overclocked to 3GHz, or 250MHz Front Side Bus. The maximum overclock is 3.2GHz 100% stable. 3.4GHz unstable, no matter what voltage I run it at. This rockin' CPU is cooled with a ThermalRight SP-94, and a 35CFM fan.

Winter Temperatures:
• Idle: 20^oC
• Load: 32^oC

Summer Temperatures:
• Idle: 35^oC
• Load: 47^oC

I have 512Mb[2x256] of KingMax DDR400 in Dual-Channel which has to run on a 5:4 asyncronous ratio to the Front Side Bus since it's 50MHz faster than the rated speed of the memory. This memory can handle 2.75v, and 2-3-3-6 timings at this amazing speed. This awesome computer is supplimented with a GeForce FX5600 video card from Prolink. It has 256Mb of DDR memory running at 600MHz. This video card has a 325MHz core, and memory that is 100MHz faster than standard because of it's 3.3ns memory modules. Stock cooling is being utilized with this monster, and stock speeds as well. My benchmark scores are kind of droopy since I don't do all the tricks. My 3DMark01 score is ~12,000, and my 3DMark03 score is ~3,000. The maximum overclock I've ever attained is:

Core Speed:
• Stock: 325MHz
• Overclocked: 365MHz

Memory Speed:
• Stock: 600MHz
• Overclocked: 675MHz

I have one 160Gb Maxtor hard drive. I'm still using the great ATA/133 interface, not Serial ATA. This hard drive is impeccable! I installed Microsoft Windows in 15 minutes with it! It is really quiet, and I can only hear it when I'm moving large movie files. When I ordered my RaidMax Scorpio 668 Silver Aluminum case from GameVE.com, it came with an extra power supply. I'm not saying the power supply that came with the case was "bad," but it was loud, so I switched it out with the extra one. So now I have a 550w silent PSU, and 4 silent case fans. I can hardly even tell my PC is on =P. I love my Prelude 15" LCD monitor! It is black, and the refresh rates demonstrate 16ms of pure, quick, gaming madness. Haha, the monitor has built-in speakers that possess probably 1 watt each haha. I like the generic keyboards. You know the ones that "click" when you push the keys down. I don't like all of the extra buttons, and "hot keys." They just don't fancy me. Oh, my mouse rocks! It is a Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer 4.0. It is ergonomic, has smooth scrolling, and a tilt wheel! One of the better mice, I must admit.

No-name Computer Nothing is fancy in this computer. In fact, I'm just going to list the parts! Actually, the only good part is the Radeon 9800Pro ^_^. The 3DMark01 score is: 17,435. And the 3DMark03 score is: 6,179.

Pimptastic AMD AthlonXP 1800+ I built this computer for my mom, and I run Folding@home on it 24/7. That is the ONLY thing it is good for. You can't play games, so I can't utilize her DSL >.<. And, she has a 4x CD-RW so, if I were to download something of great importance, it would take ~18 minutes to burn...

• MSI mATX Motherboard
• AMD AthlonXP 1800+. Ran at 1800+ everyday, and has been all the way up to 2100+ speeds!
• The stupid thing has 256Mb of SDRAM, and it is uber slow
• Onboard crap graphics, with 16Mb of shared memory...
• 12Gb old crap hard drive. I think it is a 5400 RPM one with ATA/66
• Compaq 17" CRT Monitor
