My PC is an excellent PC (XPS 420), only it has this bad habit where occasionally it "Pisses itself and dies", which requires a full OS resinstall
Poll: Your computer's weakest link...
- Thread starter dyre

My 2002 Emac is currently nearly comatose; I can't open more than two programs at a time and it crashes every 15 minutes or so.
But.
This afternoon my rescue comes. Again a Mac, but this one's with the right processor, so I might finally get to play games on it.

well i have an SSD (and my data drives are in a redundant raid), 3,2ghz quad core proc, GTX480 (runs anything at max with dual monitors), 16GB ram, solid mobo, excellent cooling, silent while idle (and still quite while running), good sound system, 950W psu (on a UPS that can handle my computer running for 20 minutes with no power)
im using windows 7 64bit, i may not like windows, but it can use my computer to its fullest (or at least close)
i am the weakness
i must be eliminated
(honestly though, i would have to say windows is my biggest weakness)
EDIT: no single part is 100% top of the line, but all are still high quality and run without problem i have put a good ammount of money into every single piece of my computer

My computer is made of rocks and powered by steam. I'm glad the poll has an option to support my state of affairs.
as i am always mobile i decided tog et a decent laptop for gaming, it has served me well and plays everything ive thrown at it so far from med to high setting. my only prob is my cooling, as it is a laptop all i can do is get a cooling pad and hope for the best, which i do. oh well it suits my needs until i am able to get a pc when i settle down and not in college.
Don't know if it counts but the monitor. I bought it 6 or 7 years ago when there was still a debate over flat screen vs. tube, and this was one of the best in it's day. All the rest of my computer has been replaced twice over but the monitor has always done everything asked of it that I'm finding myself having troubles parting from it.
It has trouble powering back up after going into sleep mode which suggests to me a power supply issue, so the end is probably nigh.

My PSU the original gave up really fast, I think it was faulty, so I swapped the one out of my old PC into it. Works fine but its definately the worst part. I'm getting a new PC soon anyways.
Oh and the monitor is lol too It's tiny and I got it from Aldi...:|
Getting a massive one with my new pc can't wait.

My graphics card. Everything else works fine, but it's that friggin' Intel HD integrated graphics that brings the whole package down to about 10 FPS.
In a few months, I'll be getting a new laptop, which my college gives to every new student that attends there. It should be able to run most of the latest stuff, but we'll see.
