Hardware Share your sad PC specs here!

[LukeHasAWii]

Do you have a low end PC? What are the specs? What games did you get to run on it?

I'll start:
I've got a PC rocking 4GB of ram, 512mb vram, 720p display, and an AMD A9 processor. I was kind of able to run fortnite, able to run Minecraft easily, and able to run Sonic Generations at 720p60fps.

I've also got a PC with an Intel Pentium 4 2.8GHz, 512mb of ram, 80gb hdd, Intel EXTREME GRAPHICS 2, (integrated), and windows xp.

i7 7700k
16 GB ram
asus rog OC 1080ti 11GB vram
1440x900 display ;O;
NVME samsung960 evo (pci express)


sad specs cuz:
intel meltdown\MUI bugs etc stuff (bought this stuff last year, and then this shit happened)
over paid for the ram.
only 1 gpu, doesn't mine a lot of criptocurrencies (however it runs games very weill but you can have the most powerfull gpu but that won't fix shitty coded\ported games)
old ass display that i am waiting for it to stop working to get an excuse to get a new one, until then this one is working and i am good with it
the samsung nvme was updated with the lastest buggy firmware that samsung removed from the website shortly and didn't fix\provided a downgrade (damn auto update)
and the sadest spec of them all: windows 10*


*windows 10 actually works wonderfully for me, have no issues, but it's a bad OS based on everyone's opinion

i7 7700k, 1080Ti, 16GB (2X8) DDR4 @ 3000MHz, 525 GB m.2 using 16GB octane memory and 2TB HDD.

Running @ 4K 60Hz screen

An old Mac:
4GB ram
Some old Intel processor (probably i3 or i5)
No idea about GPU, not sure if it even has a separate CPU.
I couldn't really figure out the system specs. Either way it's slow as hell. It also has a 500-GB hard disk, so yeah, not much space (new PC has 4TB + 1 million terabytes cloud storage), and Minecraft is hardly playable without OptiFine, if I use a big kid (like Aether II) I also have to use fastCraft. I'm gonna wipe the hard disk and install Solus on it soon.

does the optane actually do something? from what i read it would only speed up the first HDD connected (the boot drive)

Umm, it said 'sad PC specs,' that's better than my new PC which is really good.

I5 6600k,gtx 1060,16gb of ddr4

My builds most likely considered mid range compared to low end,but close enough.

I didn't know that Serial ATA has different versions.

 

[andzalot55]

i3-6100
GTX 970
2x 4GB DDR4 2800MHz

Please don't ask why an i3-6100; long story short, was on a budget and my friend sold me his 970 for less than 200$ cad.

Sad specs. because I have an i3-6100 paired with a GTX 970.

I bought it second hand thinking I could speed up my HDD, but yeah, only the Windows boot drive and only works with Windows it seems. It does speed it a bit, more noticeably the OS boot (I believe it stores windows boot files. It's enough with an SSD to be useful but wouldn't recommend the investment. I hope they change the drives to support other disks eventually.

Umm, it said 'sad PC specs,' that's better than my new PC which is really good.

I'm sorry, I misread. If it make you feel better my older rig has a core 2 duo, no SSD, 3GB DDR2 and a 560 ti

this is for low spec pc people, not your high end gaming desktops

anyway my toshiba laptop that I bought 9 years ago and still using today, its felling a bit sluggish after all these years, so im gonna install an ssd in it

Wow, that is sad lol
Have you read up on installing Linux on it?

 

[Tom Bombadildo]

Well let's see...

There's my 2007 Macbook:
C2D T7200
2GB of DDR2
Intel GMA 950
500GB HDD

Then my 2009 Macbook:
C2D P7450
6GB of DDR2
Nvidia GT 9400m
500GB HDD

My Toshiba Satellite 1625CDT:
AMD K6-2 running at 475MHz
192MB of RAM
ATI Rage LT Pro
8GB SD card (using an IDE to SD Card adapter)

My Toshiba Satellite T1910CS:
Intel 486SX running at 33mhz
4MB of RAM
2GB SD card (using an IDE to SD Card adapter)

A "Sunrace HyperBook 2200SX":
An Intel 386SL running at 20mhz
2MB of RAM
and an 200MB HDD

And I've got a laptop with a Pentium II coming at some point this week as well, not sure the full specs yet but it'll have 32MB of RAM and I'll probably pull the 2GB SD card from the T1910CS and put it in this.

I had a laptop that had a pathetic 1.6GHz single-core Intel processor, 1 whole GB of DDR2 RAM, a 256GB HDD, and Windows Vista included. I couldn't even get Ubuntu to run on it - I had to run Lubuntu, which still wasn't the most responsive. Gaming? Out of the question.

I had another laptop with a more formidable 1.9GHz Dual-Core processor with a 500GB Seagate Momentus Thin, 4GB of DDR3 which I upgraded to 8GB, and 32MB dedicated graphics. I somehow ran a lot of games at it. CoD WaW, Unturned, CSGO, Killing Floor 2 (for a while), Bioshock Infinite, and some other games ran at various sub-HD resolutions at least 30FPS. At that time, that was acceptable for me. It also ran Windows 10.
EDIT: This laptop also won't boot anymore. I think it overheated too much and something got damaged, because my FPS dropped whenever the exhaust got too hot so I remedied it by putting an ice pack under it. Bad idea.

I didn't know that Serial ATA has different versions.

3 versions,
IIRC the 2nd version only supports up to 300MB\s (theory) or something like that, the sata 2 is known as sata 300, while sata 3 is known as sata 600

you peasants still using sata ;O; pcie for life

if he is interested he probably can get a pcie card to use sata drives with the full speed. i am not sure if he will be able to boot from them easily tough...

> OP asks for low specs
> mostly pretty highly-spec'd systems
kek

My turn.

i7-4790K @ 4.4Ghz
GTX 980 Ti @ 1400mhz
16GB DDR3-1866mhz
500GB SSD, 3TB 7200rpm HDD, 1TB 7200rpm HDD

Not the latest stuff, but it runs everything I need it to run like a charm, so I have no need for upgrades atm. Except maybe another hard drive. Between an enormous game library and lossless After Effects renders, I only have about 1TB left across my three internal drives, and that's after some spring cleaning.

anything that is not Dual Core, its a SAD PC Specs.

even with some dual core or P4 HT, you could play some good games. people really need to understand the meaning of a SAD pc spec.
