wait, did ATI made cpus? or you made the mistake and have an ATI RADEON gpu?
never had a gpu so great like my ati radeon something back in the 2000 and something
 
I love all these kiddies bragging about setups that they spent $1000+ meanwhile they use less than 4GB of RAM and less than 10% of the CPU's power.

Also the same people who'd pay $100 for a mouse and $200 for a keyboard just because they "look cool".
Nah man, i'm sure some of these people run some SUPER big minecraft servers

sorry for this "shitpost"
but didn't yea hear? there is no better way to mine criptocurencies than a redstone computer in minecraft.
dificulty so high, only a dedicated asic computer in minecraft can mine shit nowadays
 
Why does a GTX 1080 Ti with i7s and M.2 SSDs count as sad PC specs?
It's sad because they don't have 3 Titan Vs in SLI. Pitiful
because thoose intels are exploitable due to meltdown
and doesn't have the AI stuff and gold color of the tesla gpus that will come this year
 
Alright then.

I suppose my "sad" gaming PC is my GTX 1050Ti + i5-2500K build. I have a 64GB ADATA SSD in a SATA 3 and 2 7200RPM 500GB Seagate Barracudas in software RAID 0 (both from old PCs) plugged into SATA 2 ports. I also have 2 SATA based 5.25" DVD-RW drives because I had 2 of them from old PCs, had the cables for them, and space in my case. Both of my DIMMs have 4GB DDR3-1600s in there, but my board only supports up to 1333MHz to my RAM is throttled. The board also had only a PCIe 2.0 x16 and x1 slot, alongside a PCI slot. The board also lacks a USB 3.0 header for my Thermaltake Suppressor F31. It's powered by a EVGA 500B. It's all plugged into a 21.5" ASUS 1080p 1ms monitor via DVI-D.
 
My laptop (costed $200 brand new):

i5-8250U clocked to 4.3GHz (outperformed my friend's i7-7700k, lel)
256GB SSD
GTX MX150 (essentially a 1030)
1920x1080 laptop display

Additions:
1280x1024 DELL monitor
1920x1080 HP monitor
Logitech K350 Keyboard (literally the best keyboard you can get. Makes all gaming keyboards look like cheap shit, kek)
2TB HDD

I call BS. That laptop would have to be upwards of $700. That SSD itself is $200.
 
does the optane actually do something? from what i read it would only speed up the first HDD connected (the boot drive)
Optane *can* be useful in some scenarios, but I doubt it'll matter for most of us.

As for my specs.... They aren't really sad. I guess I can throw my old laptop in here, I still use it cuz... reasons.

It's some HP Pavillion g6 notebook. Has an AMD A4-3300M dual-core APU clocked at 1.9GHz. It does have 6GB of RAM for whatever reason. It is very usable now that I removed Windows and replaced the HDD with an SSD.

Was packaged in the wrong box so BestBuy couldn't sell it as a regular item and it ended up under the refurbished rack. The guy told me he'd hide it until they finished marking it down (went from $629 OG price, to $419, then to $379, then to $279, then to $205).

Wow that is nuts. Congrats on snagging that great deal then.
