I currently have some somewhat old components, but am upgrading soon, so here is my current stuff:

Processor: Intel Core i3 530 @2.93ghz (it's a dual core, but has hyper-threading, so it isnt all that bad)

Motherboard: Asus P7P55D-LE (whats even worse than it being from 2009 is that it has an IDE connector on it! and i actually use it, for my dvd drive!)

Ram: 2x2gb ddr3 1333mhz

Graphics card: EVGA gtx 750ti FTW edition 2gb GDDR5 (the sad thing is the mobo dosent have pcie 3.0, so it has to run in 2.0, and the only full 16x slot on the mobo that the card can go in is messed up by the case, so it has to go in the second 16x slot which is pcie 1.1, its a physical 16x but only has 8x lanes. so my graphics card runs at 8x on pcie 1.1 :(

Hard drive/s: 1x Samsung 840 evo 120gb (os drive) and a 500gb segate drive for storage

Extra stuff: Gigabyte GC-WB867D-I wireless card, and some random usb 3 card xD (the wireless card has both wifi, bluetooth, and intel WiDi, but the widi drivers dont work on windows 8.1 (not that i use them anyway)

psu: dunno the manufacturer, but its a 500w

OS: windows 8.1 64-bit

Case: Cooler Master K380


The stuff im about to get soon:

processor: Intel core i5 4690k @3.5ghz (max turbo of 3.9)

Ram: gskill ripjawsx 2x4gb ddr3 1600mhz

Motherboard: Asus Z97-a

Hard drive/s: possibly a 250gb m.2 ssd

OS: windows 10 64-bit

Other stuff: definitely a new DVD drive xD

Peripherals:
Logitech g19 gaming keyboard
2x AOC 2218 (monitors)
Razer chimera wireless headset

Needed a laptop for some school work, and its nice being able to sit in bed and still do things. Planning on getting a desktop for my next computer though.

It's been a while since I actually had to dust off the ol' Speccy, but here's what I got:


-HARDWARE-
CPU: AMD FX-8350 @ Stock 4.0GHz
RAM: 8GB DDR3 G.Skill (2x4GB) @ Stock Clock
MOBO: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
GPU: ATI AMD Radeon R9 280, 3GB VRAM


-SOFTWARE-
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate, SP1
BROWSER: Chrome (Stable Release)


-PERIPHERALS-
MOUSE: CM Storm Custom
KEYBRD: MS SideWinder X4
HEADSET: GameCom 380
MONITOR: BenQ XL2420TE, 1920x1080 Resolution @ 144Hz


I basically worked my ass off for this, and it's been through a case change already. Hopefully once I'm through with college (or during) I'll be able to work and keep upgrading for future releases. Mostly for Fallout 4, though. Also I have a couple fans and the CPU running on an upgraded fan cooler, though I'm hoping to be able to afford a water cooling system for the overclockin'.  8)

The moral of the story was, If you don't have 256gb of ram, You have a small dick.

I only have 8gb of ram in my rig, but my dad's an IT guy, and yesterday he had to install a SECOND kit of 128gb of ecc memory into a server at his work, because it runs 6 virtual servers and 128gb wasn't enough xD

Seems pretty decent :D
BUT
1. asrock motherboards suck
2. You'll really wanna have a good cpu cooler if you want your processor to run ok, my cousin has a similar model, and with the stock cooler it is the crappiest thing i'd ever seen, but with a big air cooler or water cooling (we tried both) it performs amazing, especially with games that utilize multiple cores.
3. Having that 16 gig of memory is a bit excessive, going for an 8 gig kit you'll get more money to get a better video card

Sorry if I'm being a little intruding :P

Uh Catalyst, that's a very good video card IIRC.

It would work for a bit. 2 years from now... PCI x16 only??  Is it 2.0? 3.0??

My AMD 8570d APU runs Games like Far Cry 4 at Medium settings 50+ fps, the card I am getting is more than enough as long as I'm not playing Crisis 3 with 16x anti-aliasing which would defeat the purpose of a budget build.
