    Is forever thinking of you.

    These words that we play are a pleasant melody
    All I want is to have you by my side,
    so that I won't lose my smiling eyes
    even on a night when we can't see the twinkling of the stars.

    Re: Post your dream computer! (Not sure where this would go)

    That's a rediculous amount of money to put into one system, especially a server. You could build ten high quality servers that will share the load instead.

    It's hard to say what my dream computer would be. There's really only so much I could put a PC to use for. Even for a heavy-duty video editing platform I need only spend a MAXIMUM of 10k... and a lot of that's just paying for a 2% upgrade in performance.

    Now, if I were to build a computer I don't particularly need or wouldn't really have any remote use for, other than touching myself while looking at it, I'd custom build my own huge chassis with a monitor built in... can't explain the rest. I'm saving it as a secret project to be entered into a case-modding competition.

        ...uhh.. you mean like spam popups while browsing the internet? that has absolutely nothing to do with a computer's components. Spend 5 minutes downloading and installing FireFox with the right tools for free, and you'll have your "dream computer".

              If I was a billionaire I wouldn't care what you had to say about the amount of money. But I'm not so, I do care.. I just want the best computer ever!

                A computer with
                A 128-bit graphics/video card that can display like a trillion colors.
                5 Terabytes of RAM
                5 Terabytes of HAM
                A giant 2 foot screen
                A DVD drive, CD-ROM drive, and a drive that can play video game disks.
                Voice recognition
                Touch recognition for the screen
                The ability to heal itself when I punch it when I get angry at the computer.
                5 4 foot tall speakers with built in surround sound.


                And to top it all off, Windows Vista-XP. (Some goofy name I made for a version better then Vista lol)

                      So it can be completely unrealistic? Ok.
                      Well I don't have too unrealistic needs.
                      -5 terabytes of RAM
                      -Highest end graphics card with at least 500mb memory
                      -3 15 terabyte harddrives
                      -a HD LCD 24" monitor
                      -7.1 surround sound speakers
                      -10gbps network card
                      -HD DVD RW drive
                      -Blue Ray RW drive
                      -Highest end wireless mouse with side scroll
                      -And an awesome case with a cool design and liquid cooling.
                      Ooo I'm gonna have to add to this
                      -Touchscreen
                      -Some sort of imaginary operating system that I know like the back of my hand(Windows) but that doesn't suck.

                      I have an Alienware now, but the need for more memory is killing me.

                              Lol onboard video on thats server? Why? Have fun not being able to play any games.

                              128mb video card? That's like 3 generations ago, why the hell would you want that as a dream computer.

                              I just bought part of mine.

                              P4 3.2ghz Proc
                              1gb DDR2 800 ram (getting another 2 gb in a week)
                              EVGA nVidia 8800GTS (320mb version. It is a beast and can run any game out today on max quality at ~ 45 FPS.
                              Seagate 250gb HDD 10000 RPM
                              NXZT Silent Case
                              550 watt PS.


                              I would like to upgrade to a quad core processor, but I'll probably go with a core-duo by september. I'm thinking the 6300 should be good enough, sticking with XP. I'll bet getting the other 2 gb of RAM. I'm not too much of a packrat, so I don't need to upgrade the HDD. My video card already has DX10 and a built in physics card, so I'm all set for next-gen gaming. I'd like get some quality creative surround sound speakers, my onboard sound is Dolby 7.1, and a Viewsoinc 22'' widescreen monitor.

                              EDIT: Don't SLi two 7600's. That's dumb. You could afford an 8800 GTS or GTX for the same price, and get better perfomance, and all the next-gen stuff.
