How many people here have a second rig?

MPX309

I have my main and then I have 2 other systems that are being worked on constantly and messing around with. My guinea pigs

@MPX309 I have a laptop that sits beside my pc (check my Show off your setup post). Does that count? But im thinking of buying an office PC for my dad (some old dell or ThinkStation) that will propably be in my room.

I have acquired several PCs over the years.

1) The KAVERI-PC: my first DIY PC, also the newest (built on 5/09/2014)

2) SEMPRON-PC: my dad's old gaming PC, with all hardware replaced (initial date: 17/04/2004, hardware replacement complete on 12/09/2014)

3) AMD-PC: my first AMD rig, a laptop with an A8-4500M (date of purchase 6/06/2014)

4) NETBOOK-LPC: my mom's old netbook, now running Linux on an SSD (initial date of purchase: somewhere in 2008, I received it on 12/06/2014)

I own three working computers (2 Macs and one Win 8) with a couple that are in need of repair laying around here somewhere.  My wife also has a laptop she uses along with her old one which still functions.   

 

I have been kicking around building another system just for the hell of it.  Probably a hackintosh as a HTPC/Media server. 

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

I have three systems.

 

i5-3570K based personal/ gaming computer

i5-3570 Home server/ media computer

Athlon II X4 750K based game server

 

Was four up until a short while ago when I donated my Core2Duo system to a nearby volunteer centre.

 

Will be getting a fourth soon-ish, to set up BungeeCord with the Athlon for Minecraft.

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

I have a laptop, a built-for-gaming-and-only-used-for-gaming desktop as well as the desktop that gets the most use: a medium sized Lenovo desktop with most of the parts swapped out. Use it because it's plenty fast enough to browse and isn't a big loss if something dies or viruses happen or I want to test an OS or whatever.

the blade is more powerful than most of the rigs of our forums members, it counts as a rig.

4690K // 212 EVO // Z97-PRO // Vengeance 16GB // GTX 770 GTX 970 // MX100 128GB // Toshiba 1TB // Air 540 // HX650
