Your History

i build my e6300 as my first build. messed around beforehand - experimenting as young lads do ;)

just kept building on tho

i want a new rig (inc case) complete about the time of nehalem. cant beat that feeling when a huge box turns up at ur house and it takes a good 10 mins of unpacking

tis like xmas :D
 
yeah ... I think most people will forget stuff...if I put a detailed list of all pc parts..odds and ends etc it'd just be too long...I think I should of worded it a bit better...as other then massive jumps in system config (for eg a single core to dual core) then theres little point in naming every pc part owned...a pc is a pc at the end of the day...was more interested in the route people took to getting to modern PC's...some people's will be shorter then others...but for us old gits PC's were not always a valid gaming system...probably only since early 90's...its interesting to see though that most people owned Amiga's and not ST's...
