First one I remember my dad got free from a junk yard and was running windows 3.xxx or something. I was too young to even understand and I couldn't even read at the time. PCs I actually remember include a P4 platform and another Athlon 64 based one.

P.s I'm not that old :P

[gfchubbs]

P4 1.6 Ghz

256 mb ram 133 MHz

32 mb video card

[FireFox]

wow first one I can't really remember much but the specs I think there these:-

Intel i386 (20MHz I think)

Can't remember the motherboard

2 or 4MB RAM

No idea on the graphics or PSU

100MB Hard Drive

Microsoft Windows 2.1

I got that computer when I was about 7 in 1996 and I think the computer was already old by then, I think someone said it was from 1988 or 1989 but I can't remember for sure but I wish I still had it.

[NapalmX]

That was a long time ago lol... Pentium II, 256mb ram, 6GB hard drive, 3dfx Voodoo 2, thats about all I can remember. Wish I still had it :(

Voodoo 2 was awesome!!

[calvin13]

Yeah it was, to be honest it's the part I would really like back, although P2's are cool.

My Dads friend helped me build the machine when I was 10 as a Christmas present, I got the card the following birthday and was the first part I ever installed completely by myself. Was so freaked out installing it and proud of myself lol when it actually booted up. It's funny thinking about it because I was doing it on carpet, such a noob lol :D Wished I had stuck at it, kind of messed up my teens (too much real world experience lol), but hey I'm back at it now :D

[Remnants]

Pentium 3 333Mhz

64MB SDRAM

Nvidia TNT2 32Mb

My house almost burned down because of the 480...

[TheCanadianGamer16]

my first computer was a prebuilt pentium E2200 with 2GB of 333mhz RAM with an HD2400 that had a passive cooler on it until it died, now ive got an FX-6100 with dual HD 7770's in crossfire.

the 480's ran incredibly hot unless you watercooled the card

Yeah my gtx 480 got maximum 111 degrees celsius when I overclocked it and ran a torture test. I've never overclocked it to play I was afraid it would broke.

[LapX]

LapX that sounds impressive for a first computer :P

Yeah, I didn't build it though, the make a wish foundation gave it to me, I upgraded it since.

[Levent]

pentium2 with 16mb ram and probably with an graphics card(that i dont remember) which was around 98

First PC that was properly mine. I got it in 2004 :)

AMD Athlon XP 2500+

some Gigabyte board ---> Biostar M7VIT GRAND

2*256 MB RAM ---> 1*512MB, as I've destroyed 1 stick by putting it in wrong when testing which stick was broken. I got lucky - It was actually the dead stick that got destroyed :D

nVidia FX5200

350W PSU

Sound Blaster Live!

[Sir Isaac]

Holy those are some powerful first computers lol. My first system was a Commodore 64, I was 6 years old.

[That Norwegian Guy]

Hmm my first computing experience was a Mac Classic.

My family's first computer when I was a kid was a Mac PowerPC (boy was it great, it even emulated Windows 3.11 really well, probably better than PC's at the time)

Then when I first got my own computer I got an Olivetti 486 DX/2... Wish I'd gotten another Mac, Macs were really best for gaming all the way up to 1999.
