Nothing wrong with iMac & EVE.

Why does it all come back to money? That is such a narrow viewpoint, some people buy iMac's because they like them - really no different than Pepsi or Coke, or Ben & Jerry's or Haagen Dazs.

I couldn't tell you the difference in price of any of those things, because my taste buds make the choice for me, so the cost is irrelevant.

Why is that so hard to understand?

That is a poor comparison, and a dangerously ignorant argument. If Apple didn't use x86 chips in their computer lineups, which basically is universal in all computers for consumers, I'd let you have that. But as they are using Intel chips, it boils down to that you paid something ridiculous for your "experience" but what you really bought was a overpriced PC with a OS that Apple perpetually lied about.

But to make it sound like your taste buds dictate your rationality, well, that just makes you a very special snowflake.

Dell XPS 420

Upgraded the Power unit to 600mw
Upgraded the Graphics Card to a Radeon 6850
Upgraded the monitor to an edge 10
Removed the floppy disks (dont know if this saves on power use but floppy disks will be on antiques roadshow soon enough

Ram 4GB :(
Disk Drive 450 Gb :(

Plays Eve Online on full + Team Fortress 2 at the same time but struggles with Skyrim on full (with graphics overhaul mods)

she's getting old- the new Graphics Card works a treat but i'm a final year student so i'm hoping she'll last the year until I start earning. I paid £1,000 for just the box back in the day (prob 5 years ago).

I think paying £1000 for a PC 5 years ago and it still able to play modern games graphics to the full is an A+ in my book, the only issues I have with it- is that its a Dell (i didn't know how to build PCs back in the day) and because of this there is little room for customization, which sucks.

I'm listening to the fan hum quite loudly right now, and hoping it holds out for another few months.

Edit* just after reading through a few of the other setup above and looking at some of the photo's. Makes me proud of my humming little shed, struggling to stay alive beside me

(I use the laptop for teamspeak as my XPS has a mind of its own when i try to plug in a mike, also I have surround sound which was a bi*** to get working.)

http://i844.photobucket.com/albums/ab10/thekiller2002us/IMAG0011.jpg

As you can see there is very little room to maneuver within the case (i've even romved some crap plastic crap that dell puts in for some reason.

I'm with Brick on this one- make thouse carebearing b******s squeal..

Wouldn't have it any other way......It runs everything and has done so for nearly 2 years now, though the video cards are slightly less than a year old.

Next stop is ivy bridge-e( the xeon version) and the EVGA SR-X motherboard, wich each CPU will have 12 physical cores, so i'll go from my current 12 core/24 thread setup, to a 24 core/48 thread setup....Might even rent some processing power for CCP's server so it runs the game better... Lol
