I have a laptop with a Core 2 Duo T8300 running at 2.4-GHz, 4-GB memory, and 32-bit architecture. My GPU is a GeForce 8400M GS. And I'm running Vista (ugh!)
Because I pretty much lost interest in PC gaming about 4 years ago, I have totally failed to keep up with all the advances in CPU and GPU tech. For instance, can somebody explain to me what it means that I have a Core 2 Duo 2.4-GHz? Does that mean that I have two processors running at 2.4-GHz for a combined speed of 4.8-GHz? I literally don't understand how to assess computers' speed anymore. When I was in HS, it was very simple - for instance, I remember how excited everyone was in 2000 when the first 1000-MHz Intel and AMD processors came out. It was like, "Yeah, we finally reached the GHz!" But now there's all kinds of stuff about the caches and buses that I don't understand. How much longer until PCs can run at 1-THz, for instance? |
I hate computer gaming, at least with a console I don't need to spend half my income updating to keep up with new technology.

I have an Xbox 360 but I'm not hooked up to the net so no LIVE. :(
My username is Gunmaster45 though, so I'll be easy to find if I ever hook up. It'd be kind of wierd to use the headsets though, we'd actually know what we sound like! :eek: And Matt, I use the computer to go on the internet pretty much alone. I don't understand any of that computer crap, it's all greek to me. My computer nut uncle is in Florida now, so I hope nothing needs fixing in the future or I'm screwed. |

Also, working on PCs used to be fun for me, in kind of the same way that working on cars is fun for other people. But sadly, when I went to college, I got out of it when I chose to major in History and Political Science. Now I don't know jack shit about computer hardware anymore... :( |
Anyone on steam? If so do me a favor and add me. http://steamcommunity.com/id/alcatrazz
