I had the Intel G1 32gig and it quickly filled cuz of vista, so I tried the Corsair p256 ssd and when I boot up with additional hdds, it BSOD on me(though it was the mobo so I RMAd it and it still had the same problem). So I will be sticking with Intel

How the heck did you manage 4.4ghz? How stable is it in LinX and/or Prime95? None of the flags go from green to red before 30 minutes?

Main very-near-silent aircooled PC (but of course, so my Grados don't suffer):

 

Corsair 620HX PSU (5 year warranty)

Gigabyte MA790GP-UD4H (AMD 790GX chipset, "UltraDurable3", 3 year warranty)

AMD Phenom II X4 940, w/ Thermalright 120 Extreme (True Black, blah blah), "doglips s-clip mod" (google that) to fit AM2 properly

8GB G.SKILL HK series DDR2-800 4-4-4-12 (lifetime warranty)

My "ol' reliable" XFX 8800GT XXX 512MB w/ Thermalright HR-03GT (lifetime warranty)

1GB Samsung HDD

1.5GB Samsung HDD + 1.5GB WD Green HDD on RAID1, main data storage (soon, after I pay $1000 to recover some data in a month)

Rosewill Black Case

Scythe 120mm S-FLEX "D" series fans (800RPM, super quiet, MTBF: 150,000 hours) + custom ducting system for CPU heatsink

X-Fi XtremeGamer w/ PAX 2.15 Drivers

 

Other stuff:

Samsung 2233rz 120hz 22" monitor - best monitor I've ever used, including CRTs, for gaming.  TN means the colors aren't as accurate, oh well

Win7 x64 w/ Switcher (like expose for mac), GridMove, F.lux (no more sleepless nights), VirtuaWin and Acronis 9 backups

EMU XBoard 49 MIDI Keyboard Controller

Linksys WRT54G-TM w/ Tomato custom firmware (delicious! lol)

Verizon FIOS 20mbit up/down

 

I had and sold my Intel 160GB X25-M G2 SSD in preparation for when I can actually afford one without living on ramen like a jobless tard (aka now).

It's not particularly impressive anymore, but I've put a huge amount of thought into each and every one of the components.  I wouldn't have changed a thing, it's around a year old now, with the 8800GT and the X-Fi being closer to 3 years old.  I'm also a sucker for warranties, haha.

my main pc is a HP 8510w laptop, vintage 2007
It's a Core 2 Duo "Santa Rosa" T7500 2.2GHz
4GB of DDR2-667
Qudro FX 570M graphics
120gb 7200rpm hard drive
Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
 
One of the really nice things is that it has amazing pixel pitch. It's a 15.4" widescreen capable of 1920x1200. Took some getting used to, but the high resolution is awesome.
 
I also rock out with an Acer Aspire One, vintage 2009
Atom N270 at 1.6GHz
1GB of RAM
160gb 5400rpm hard drive
Windows XP Home SP3
 
And, I do have a desktop, vintage 2006 or so
Athlon FX-55 2.6GHz
2GB of DDR-400
Radeon X1300 PCI-E graphics
Chaintech AV-710
Biostar 939 nForce mobo
Seasonic S12-330w PSU
Samsung 250gb SATA drive
AOpen cube case
 
I carry the netbook with me almost all of the time. It weighs 2 pounds and lasts 2 and a half hours on a 3 cell battery.
 
The laptop is what I use for everything. I have a docking station, and it spends far more time there than it does anywhere else. It's hooked up to an IBM Model M keyboard, a Microsoft Sidewinder mouse, my Maverick DAC, a 25.5" Asus LCD monitor, and a 160GB Seagate external hard drive.
 
The desktop is just sitting around at the moment. It used to be my main PC before I got the laptop. When I move into an apartment in August, I'm planning on hooking it up to my roommate's plasma TV and my other roommate's surround sound system. For peripherals, I have a pair of 500gb Western Digital usb hard drives, and a Microsoft wireless KB and mouse. I'm going to map network drives and connect them via gigabit, so it should be great for streaming videos and music.
