What speed(s) are your computers
 

A couple years ago I posted this same thread (located here if anyone wants to see the results). Now I would like to see some updated results as our systems change. Feel free to post any specs of your systems below. This is especially interesting now due to the clock speed differences due to dual core and intel vs amd

My home system is currently the same one posted later in that thread:
2.8C Ghz P4
Abit IS7 - Has since been fully replaced once (due to popped out fan brackets) and the northbridge fan 4 times (current one now dying again)
1GB DDR400
2x 160GB Seagate 7200.7 SATA
300GB Seagate 7200.8
Radeon 9500 Pro 128MB
SB Audigy 2 Platinum
NEC ND-3500 16x DL DVDRW

Now use for programming during robotics (and at my house rest of the year):
HP nc6000 Laptop
1.8GHz Centrino
512MB DDR 333
40 GB 5400 RPM Hard Drive
Mobility Radeon 9700

and

Older HP Laptop
Athlon 2500+
512 DDR 266
30 GB Hard Drive

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

My iBook:

1.42 GHz G4 Processor (PowerPC for lizz-ife...or until I can afford a Mactel)
1 GB of RAM (trust me, it screams with a gig, especially after life with 512 MB)
80 GB Hard drive
OS X 10.4.4 (the most beautiful OS I've dealt with)

Plus I still have the PCs in the old thread, but they're not operational.

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

I submit to you this:

AMD64 clock speeds are typically lower than Intel P4 clock speeds for similar performance. This poll cannot accurately compare performance of people's computers as-is.

I have a desktop P4 @3.00GHz and a laptop AMD64 3200+ @2.0GHz and my laptop can run faster than the desktop depending on the circumstances.

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

Agreed with Adam. I have a AMD 64 3500+ that runs at 2.2 ghz clock speed, but would most certainly blow 2.2 ghz intels out of the water.

Full setup:
AMD 64 3500+
1 gb RAM
Geforce 6800 GT
200 gb HD
+dvd, card reader, anything else you could imagine.

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

I already mentioned this in my initial post. While the difference may be more exaggerated now, this offset was there for the original poll as well. My main purpose here was for comparison, and since both manufacturers have increased clock speeds, this is still somewhat valid.

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

The same holds true with Pentium M.

My 2.0 Dothan would murder a 2.0 P4.

Re: What speed(s) are your computers

My server which I run about 6 websites off and do major video editing on, I have never seen the usage go above 30%. Runs constant every day unless I do hardware upgrades, longest run time between restarts was I believe 120days.

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

The fastest computer I have is my "good" Toshiba Satellite laptop, a 1.6 P4 with 512MB, 30GB and XP home.

The second fastest I have is my "second/beater" laptop I got off eBay for a toatl of $412 including shipping. Is also a Satellite with a 650MHZ Celeron, 320MB, 30GB and 2000 Pro.

Then I have an HP Pavilion but it's currently dead right now. It's a 533MHZ P3, 256MB, 30GB and has 98SE on it.

The computer I'm on now is a built computer with a 500MHZ AMD K-6, 256MB, 20GB and 2000 Pro.

Then there's also my oldest still running computer that's also still part of my home network as is all the above computers. It's a built 233MHZ P1, 256MB, 4.3GB with 98SE.

I don't know who wants to top that, but good luck...

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

Why only 60? Get a nice 100gb harddrive. 100 is a nice round number, much nicer than 60. :)

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

As I said, It is yet to be upgraded...

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

Here's an update :)

In the time since I last posted I won 3 computers that my company was auctioning off. I just took the 3 home plus two others that I got for $5 each. They upgraded many of the computers (desktops) that were in the offices. With all the old ones piling up they decided to auction them off with the procedes going to the local food bank. They were a mixed lot with different manufacturers, models, and some custom built ones. They were all functional when removed from service. They did wipe the harddrives before the auction but they included any original system driver and operating disks that came with the computers.

Here's what I won:

Intergraph TD 260 (Technical Desktop).........PII 400MHZ, 128MB, 6.6GB, and has disks for Windows NT. I won two of these computers and they have the exact same specs.

HP Brio BA200...........Celeron 433MHZ, 160MB, and has the disks for 98SE. I also won two of these, one has a 7.5GB harddrive and the other has a 4GB.

HP Brio model unknown............PII 300MHZ, 64MB, 8GB, and has the disks for 98SE.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with all of them but for the fact I paid as little as $5 for some of them I'm not going to complain. While they won't support today's gaming they are more than adequate to browse the web or run Office.

I did decide to part out one of the Intergraphs and one of the HP Brios. One of each is no longer functional as I took the hard drive from one and put it in the other to have dual hard drives and more space. I also did the same thing with the memory sticks.

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

How is the laptop? I am considering getting that, or If i can find cheap enough, the Acer TM8200 (Core duo 2Ghz, 256mb x1600, WSXGA screen, carbon fiber + what the aspire has)

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

I love the laptop.

So far haven't had a single problem with it, and it runs so much smoother than my desktop pc in almost every aspect except gaming. (Well, obviously - it's just a laptop) - Though not saying you can't game on it; it runs Half-Life 2 and BF2 just peachy.

The dual core really makes things much nicer for multitasking... And it more than compensates for the lower clock speed in almost all cases. Along with the two gigs of ddr2 ram, it's handled everything I can throw at it. I usually have a ton of processor and ram intensive apps open at once, no problem, no slowdown. I just wish windows would have some method of allocating processes to a certain core automatically instead of having to do it manually.

As far as battery life goes, I got about 3 hours of life out of it. After about now 60 or so charge cycles i'm down to about 2 to 2 and a half but I'm not complaining, it's good for what it is. *I keep the processor at full speed and I have the x1400 set for best performance, not for best battery life, as well as keeping the WiFi on whenever the laptop's on.*

It's not the lightest thing out there, but it's not as heavy as say, an alienware laptop. My one complaint is that I hate hate hate hate hate TFT's... They're magnets for airborne particles and with me using this in the shop and at home with two longhair cats, I really wish I could swap it out with an LCD. I'm also yet to find a way to get rid of the streaks caused by moisture getting onto the screen from when I tried wiping some cat fur off the first day, but that's really all I don't like about it. For $1,500 i'm very happy with it.


And to think, I was going to buy a macbook pro instead, with 512mb of ram and an 80gb hdd for $500 more than I got this baby for. :rolleyes:

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

my desktop has an amd 64 athlon (it says 3800+ when viewed on system infromation in "My Computer", but when i bought it, the box said 3700+, strange huh?) with 1 GB of RAM, and a 200 GB hardrive.

Yeah, my computer's aging... don't really have the funds to update it though.
2.53 Ghz P4 proc (only 533mhz bus!!)
512 mb ram (my mobo only has two slots!)
9800 pro (only reason I can play Homeworld 2, Rise of Nations, KOTOR 2...)
and, /*drumroll*/
a broken floppy drive!! Yay!
However, my sound system is killer - Audigy 2 ZS and a Logitech 680 system.

Re: What speed(s) are your computers
 

Last summer I built my first rig:

msi neo4 socket 939
AMD 64 3200+ (2.0 venice) oc'd to 2.4
evga 6800gt
1 gb Corsair XMS
WD 250 gb sata 3.0gb
Dell 1905 FP

I'm amazed with the venice's overclocking captability, currently i have it oc'd from 2.0 to 2.4 with a stock heatsink and 4 case fans, i've never seen the computer rise over 41 degrees celsius.

I still regret my decision not to go SLI- 8 months ago I debated it, but now I would love to add another 6800 at a much more discounted price..

I'll second that. I have a +3500 Venice. I used to overclock it, but I've since dropped it back to stock. I did this so I can turn off the miserable CPU fan when I'm not gaming or Cadding.

Specs-
AMD althlon 64 +3500 Venice
ECS KN1-E main bored
1512mb pc400 ram. Missed the boat on dual channel though.
Radeon x800XL based graphics card from Gigabyte. Fanless, which I dig. The heatsink is nice PC bling to.
74gig 10k rpm from western digital as the main drive for programs.
250gig from WD for bulk storage.
520 watt power supply to keep it all running.

The goal was a quietish system %80 of the time, with the fan capacity for some hard HL2 gaming sessions. I'm happy with it, and happy with the upgrade outlook. Gotta love that 939 socket.
