AMD Athlon XP 2100+.  It was 1.7GHz. 

 

GeForce 4 MX series. I don't recall the model. 

 

 

 

I don't have any of the components any more because they were disposed long ago, but I still have the case. In fact it was still being used until about 8 months ago when I got an H440 case.

My current rig -

Shitty laptop with i3 m350 4 gigs of ram and integrated graphics! Need a new one but no money!

Just for some information -

Can't run tf2 for more than 5 minutes

Cs1.6 lags after 30 mins

Played only cod mw at a whopping 18 FPS at lowest settings at 800x600

After playing cod mw for a few months the laptop got beat up so bad that now it can't even handle Cs1.6 and tf2

Hmm..   First computer I personally owned had a Pentium 200 with MMX!  (Ohhh  shiney).   I honestly don't remember the video card.  It was a Gateway computer back when they were still Gateway 2000 and had those ugly cows.   

 

My family had a computer before that.   It was a 386...   I played Jetfighter II for hours on that thing. 

Tell my tale to those who ask. Tell it truly; the ill deeds along with the good, and let me be judged accordingly.

^this in a Compaq prebuilt.

 

 

The old girl is still kicking.

I dusted her, installed a new gpu driver over the old corrupted one, and finally reapplied thermal paste on her nVidia heart.

 

She plays games :)

 

My goal is to keep her going as long as possible. So far so good, 15 years and nothing has broken but the start button pcb, it burnt out.

 

My profile pic is of that gpu chipset actually.

Oh man! Feels so old after reading all of this. Well..

My first gaming PC was the Intel core 2 duo E6300(or something similar.) And an Nvidia geforce 9600gt with 8GB ddr2 ram. Ran well until one day my GPU died on me :-( sure brings back lots of memories. P.S my first gaming PC was a custom prebuilt PC.

AMD Phenom II x6 1100T Black Edition with GTX 550Ti 2GB by Galaxy. I loved how the card has a fan on a hinge so I could easily clean the heatsink.
