For a computer that was actually mine, I had:

 

CPU:

Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E8400 (6M Cache, 3.00 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB)

 

I was actually impressed with the CPU. I bought it old, all the parts, for around 120$. For such an old CPU, it was very good. lol

 

GPU:

GeForce 6600LE 256mb

(I still own it too, but I think it is dead.)

That I can remember.... My second PC cost 2 grand and had 20MB of memory, and that was outstanding.

486 DX/2 66 mhz.

 

First GPU I remember getting was an Nvidia FX5200, though I had one before that, just can't remember what it was. Probably a Voodoo something or other.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.
