Decent enough for a laptop, hard to say though as I'm not familiar with Macs. 8/10.

@TPAM:Godly compared to mine.

AMD Athlon 64 2.0 Ghz single-core

1.5 GBs of DDR RAM

Nvidia 7900(last DX9 card produced) GT

200 GB crap HD

500W Coolermaster PSU.

[Waris]

Looks like it can run most games fine, single-core 2 GHz AMD makes for a potential bottleneck tho.

My laptop:
-Intel Core2Duo T7300 (2 GHz, 800 MHz fsb, 4 MB L2 Cache)
-14.1" WXGA LCD
-ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT with 256 MB dedicated memory, which may share up to 1.5 GB of system memory...
-... which matters none, because I have 4 gigs of them.
-250 GB Hard Disk
-Other mobile trinkets

[-Xv-]

wtf 4 gigs on a laptop? wow

That laptop sure is a 9.5/10 amongst laptops :o

here is mine... It is sort of a budget Gamin' PC but it runs everything (cost around $600 Canadian to build)


AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Black Edition running @ 3.6ghz

2 gig DDR2 800mhz Ram

ATI HD3870 512 gddr4

some budget AsRock mobo > sister company to Asus. (it has real nice on board HD audio)

545w psu

500+320+160 SATA drives + a 120 gig IDE drive.


A few extra fans here 'n' there.

Because fo Vista's.

That's a very good rig I have to say. 8.5/10

[CommanderJB]

Well, here's mine:
Processor: Intel Pentium IV, 2.8 GHz (I think it has HyperThreading, not sure).
Graphics: ATI Radeon X1950 Pro IceQ Turbo, 512MB DDR3 memory. Uses an AGP8X slot (it was the best card I could find for an AGP slot)
RAM: 1GB DDR2
Hard Drive: 120GB (I think - might be more, maybe 240GB)
Power Supply: 400W
Removable Storage: 1 DVD/RW drive, 1 3.5in floppy drive, 6 USB ports
Networking: 1GB/s ethernet network card
Sound: Creative Sound Blaster with Dell 2.1 speaker system (I know, I know, Dell, but it's actually great - the bass is amazing)
Screen: 19in LCD (nothing special, nothing terrible)

It's not the world's most incredible rig by any margin, but I love it. We originally bought it in 2003 (we got it along with C&C Generals, in fact) for about $2000 AUD, but over Christmas this year I spent about $500 upgrading it with the new graphics card, PSU and 512MB extra RAM. It was just about the best investment I ever made - it runs almost everything fine, even World in Conflict and Battlefield 2142 at virtually about the highest settings (minus anti-aliasing and physics, which I set at low to halfway). Supreme Commander gets severe processor bottlenecking, but that's to be expected with a 5-year-old chip I suppose. I'm constantly amazed at what it can do. However, I'll be buying a new rig next time for sure - there's only so far you can upgrade after all.

My 7900 GT 256MB works in an AGP8X slot, but as I said , its the last of the Nvidia DX9 cards and you won't find a DX10 card that doesn't use a PCI-E 16X.

[Libains]

Lil Razor - current rig is ok - 5/10 - as for the newer one i'd say 9/10 for that - and the card's good.

Now - for my god-awfully old laptop with no upgrade capacity aside from RAM:

Sony VAIO
Intel Pentium M - 1.86GHz
RAM - 512mb..... (thinking of upgrading but can only handle 1GB)
Video Card - Nvidia GeForce Go6200 - 128MB dedicated - hardly worth it...
Monitor - 1280x800 pixels - 15.4inch widescreen
DVD-RW - that can't write anymore...
Hard drive - 100GB
Sound card - Realtek high-Def audio card.

PS no rating is too bad for this!
