Yes, the old folks here (18+) make thier own money, and run thier games on high-end, pricey gaming rigs that us small children (17-) can only dream of. So, the purpose of this thread is to tell what you have in your box, and how fast your frames go.
Initially, the moneymaker of the household purchased an eMachine, which, at the time, was fine for me, because I wasnt a gamer, at all. However, since I started playing Morrowind, I've been subtley tricking it out with whatever scant coins I can collect around the house.
Setup:
eMachines Proprietary Keyboard(sucks), Speakers(blown) and Monitor(max refresh of 60Hz)
Logitech Optical Mouse (best bang for the $$)
640 Megs of DDR RAM (plugged an additional 512 into the 128 I had.)
40GB HDD (almost full)
1.7 GHz Celeron
7500 RADEON (Hey, for 80 bucks, and it being PCI, I'm pleased)
FPS During Inactive periods: 20-30
FPS During large battles: 5-11
So....Painful....
