I know a lot of us are allways adding new mods to our trucks, but how many of you like to add go fast mods to your computers.

I just added 128 MB of RD Ram, it seems to be running better with the new Mod. Now what to do next? LOL

 

LOL I mod big computers (unix servers) for a living, so I try not to mess with the home machines, much

Add more processors, it's like HP for your computer or something...

 

I dont mod em, I just have them built right the first time. Then as time goes on and technology progresses, I justhave dad build a whole new box.

My current setup is a 1.2GiG AMD TBird w/ 512MB of SDRam 133MHz, SiS MoBo with 1020 series chip set, 60GiG HD, all running Windows ME. So far this setup works well. I haven't had to reboot in 4 weeks now.

 

LOL

In the good old days I would just find a good disk wiper utility and turn in the old PC to work and get a newer one. Currently suffering along with 2 proc 733 mhz, 700+ mb ram compaq workstation... With the current economy I may have to actually go to the store and buy an upgrade...

Racing is a good distraction from all the PC stuff I do... Changing tires and going like hell is a good switch.....
TORQUE RULES !!!!

Just upgraded here also, dual 800mhz processors w/ 384 pc133 ram.

It moves pretty quick now.

 

Commodore 64 rules!

 

I've been overclocking computers for years. My first overclock was a 166 up to 201, next a 233 to a 297. Then a 366 celeron to 567. The last one was a 600 coppermine to 852. When you kick those bus speeds up the whole computer rocks. All you have to do is keep them cool like the L.

 

I use Compaq 1.33 GHZ AMD T'Bird processor, 1.024 MB SDRAM, 90 GB HD setup for video & still camera work. Also outstanding games play as well. DVD, 2 CDR Writers, an additonal external 60GB Firewire HD for photo storage. 5 printers, 2 scanners, a fax & lots of other goodies: sound, (record or play), card readers, ZIP drive

 

got a HP 900MHz with 128Megs of ram, 12x DVD, 8x4x24 burner. my other 4 desktops are all custom, too much to list all of them but my best one is a 1.7GHz intel p4, 256M ram, 16x DVD, 12x10x40 burner, 21" sony monitor, ATI All-In-Wonder 128 AGP 32Meg Video/TV card, 80G hard drive, 25 external USB hard drive(USB is slow but i dont use it much) and a bunch of other various things. My laptop is a sony, kinda old, 650MHz, DVD, 256megs of ram, 14" or 15" screen (cant remember). Some other cool toys to go with my computers. As you can tell im kind of a computer freak. 3 of my desktops and my laptop are all on a network running off a cable modem. oh yeah i have 2 printers and 2 scanners.

 

Jeez, does this mean its time to trade in my Quadra 605?

Its great for surfin' the net and doing the board thing!!!

 

Hey, I just learned to post pictures, and I thought I was hot ***** LOL Just bought my second computer because with a slighty buzzzed head one night I erased the BIOS off my computer. The poor little 266. So I stepped up to a 950, Petium III (sp check?) 60 hard drive, that's about all I know O yeah a CD burner to make my cd's!

 

To an amd 350 mgz, 128 megs of ram, and stole the hard drive (20 gig I think) from my Compaq (soon to be used for target practice)

For the last several weeks I was stuck with a 486/66 with 32 megs of ram. Good enough to check email though. But thats it.
