Woohoo, smokin' new specs!

Gigabyte GA-P35T-DQ6 mobo
Core 2 Duo E6850 Conroe @ 3.0 Ghz
2 Gb Corsair DDR3 @ 1333 Mhz
EVGA GeForce 8800 GTX 768 Mb
WD Raptor 10,000 RPM 150 Gb

Nothing is overclocked yet, since the stock speeds are more than enough to run pretty much anything out today. I can't wait to see how it handles Bioshock, and if it has trouble with that (or anything else in the future) then I'll see how far I can push it.

OLD AND BUSTED

WinXP Pro 5.1 SP2
Athlon 64 3200+
200GB HDD
16x DVD-R/W
1GB DDR400 Ram
ATI Radeon x800 256MB vram
19" flatscreen CRT

The rest is basic, keyboard, optical mouse, etc.

NEW HOTNESS

Windows Vista
ASUS P5N-E
Intel E6600 C2D w/Zalman 9500 heatsink
500GB SATA-300 Internal HDD + 160GB USB2.0 External HDD
2GB DDR2-800Mhz dual channel Ram
evga GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB
18x Sony DVD-R/W
22" Widescreen LCD

I also rami'd-out my desktop with new speakers and that swell G15 LCD Keyboard. I love this thing, it's worth it just for the media controls. I skimped on the processor a bit, but the E6600 overclocks REALLY well so hopefully I won't pay for my frugality. Considering another set of DDR2 Ram when I order a sound card and new mouse (just going to use onboard audio for now but.. it's onboard audio which isn't exactly fantastic). Of course, all these purchases have thus far made me a poor, poor man so perhaps I should hold off for the time being.

WTF? They make RAM that runs at 2.66 Ghz? I have like really expensive ass ram that they don't make any more and thats at 2.19 Ghz. I don't know what you ahave but I doubt it's running at that speed.

It's the same as your processor speed.

No it isn't.... Your RAM has a different speed then your processor, look in your system: Windows Key + Pause/break

EDIT: Don't respond in here, send me a message on MSN, lots of one liners and an argument in this topic is not a good thing.

The highest speed I've ever seen consumer Ram run at is 1800mhz, which is ridiculously expensive.

Run CPU-z, findable via Google. It will tell you tons of crap about your system.

From what I can tell it was a power surge that destroyed the motherboard. I can't tell if the CPU, RAM, and video card are intact, but they're probably fine.

my new setup!

CPU: AMD socket AM2 Sempron 2800+ 64kb/L1, 128kb/L2 cache
Mem: OCZ DDR2-800 1536mb 5-5-5-12
mobo: BIOSTAR NF4UAM2G
vid card: X800GT 256mb GDDR3 PCI-e 16X
hd: maxtor 160GB ATA133 EIDE 3X (2 are failing! F*CK!)

About rambus from the past, I know that the 32bit rambus went up to 1066MHZ but even that had trouble matching DDR333. The old 800MHZ rambus (PC-800) was only 15% faster than standard PC-100 SD ram way back when. Rambus ran really fast but it's search method(forgot the correct term) was really inefficient which caused it to "fall-out" from intel and DDR took its place. God I remember how expensive Rambus was and how little boost it gave over SD-ram....
