Let's Talk About Your Team's Computers

[Aeglos]

For Programming/ Doubles as a Driver's Station:

1 x HP ProBook 6550b
Features: WIN7 Enterprise, i5-520M, no dGPU, 2GB RAM, 250GB HDD, 1366x768 display, dead CMOS battery school will not replace, half- functional BIOS chip that makes the computer fail POST unless booted a certain way, non- functional laptop battery that will die in about 15 mins if unplugged from the wall, keys will occasionally not register, and the icing on the cake: sometimes it just won't charge, or accept any power from the wall outlet, so we have to bring another laptop computer along as a battery charger for the main one.


My Personal Rig, which I can use for programming at home (but mostly gaming and personal programming projects, let me be honest here):

Case: Fractal Design Define R4
Motherboard: MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition
CPU: Intel i7-4790
CPU Cooler: Phanteks PH-TC12DX
GPU: Watercooled GTX 760
RAM: 16GB Samsung DDR3-1600
Storage: Seagate 2TB Hybrid Drive
PSU: EVGA 500B


For CAD:

1 x HP EliteBook 840
Features: WIN7 Enterprise, i7-4600U, I think no dGPU (but am uncertain), 8GB RAM, 500GB HDD, 1920x1080 display

20 x HP Compaq 8200 Elite All-In-One (In our CAD/ Technology Lab)
Features: WIN7 Enterprise, i5 2400S, no dGPU, 4GB RAM, 250GB HDD, 1920x1080 display

If you couldn't tell, as a programmer, I am not a huge fan of the programming laptop we are using currently. It has developed major stability issues over the years I have used it.

My team has two laptops one really old hp and a not as old hp (i think) that we use for programming. Other than that we all have to use our personal laptops for cad and such. We sometimes have access to a mac lab that we can't install cad or anything on so its not really useful.
