Just wondering if anyone else runs on super-old rigs. Sorry if there's a topic on this already or if it's in the wrong section, I really don't post often (more like just browse the [H]otDeals section).
Anyways since my S939 setup blew up, I never regained the determination (or money) to build a new rig so here's what I've been running ever since.
-AMD Athlon 2500+ XP @ 1.9 Ghz
-Shuttle AN35-N Ultra
-BFG 6800GS OC (died last week, sent in for RMA, awaiting new card)
-2x512MB Kingston HyperX DDR400 PC3200 RAM
-Coolermaster Real Power RS-450W
-Plus some random no-name case, a 120GB WD, and 2 Pioneer DVD-RW drives.
Originally built in fall 2004, with 512MB of RAM and an MX440 in it. Used it for a solid 2 and a half years until I built my S939 system which blew up in just under 2 months after building, after that I've been using it ever since. Painfully slow. Finally going to make the leap to a C2Q and PCIe again this fall.
Anyone else still using anything prehistoric as their main computer?
