Mine was this one

  • Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHz
  • 1GB RAM DDR
  • NVidia Geforce FX 5600 512mb
  • Creative Sound Blaster Live! 5.1
  • Intel D865PERL
  • 500Watts power supply
  • Two 80gb hard Drives

pc

I used this computer till early 2012 when I bought the one that I'm using now

I got it when my uncle passed away, it was his computer around 2003. I got it on 2005 (I'm 19). That's why I still keep it because of him actually, he was like my older brother.

Also, I made a private giveaway of a game that I enjoyed a lot on that PC, there's no CV so anyone feel free to join

Hmmm I was a bit too young to know my first PC specs. All I remember was that is had under 1.9GB total HDD space.

The second PC was one I bought for myself to last me for university, so I spent all of my hard-earned cash to build it:
nVidia 6800 gt
AMD Athlon x2 3600
Creative SoundBlaster Audigy 2 (this is actually in my current PC)
2GB DDR RAM
200GB HDD
Some square monitor (not widescreen)
Logitech x530 5.1s (still have these, and some X540s)
and I was young and silly, so it had a pointlessly flashy case (Sunbeam Samurai). Now I have a Corsair 800D

TRS-80 COCO II. I still have it in my closet, but the disk drive controller is broken.

Then inherited a 386DX 25MHz with 4MB of RAM. During its time, 4MB was like having 16GB today, and the DX chip meant it had the math co-processor onboard. While a 486 was generally faster, there were things that the 386DX could do better than the cheaper 486SX 25/33 chips. For example, Falcon 3.0 required a DX processor to be able to run with the high fidelity flight model enabled.

As mine, don't remember if 4 or 8 mb of ram. But mine was DX2 to 100Mhz so 50x2.
Later got an extra giga and a vga and the cdrom. It wasn' originally.
Seems it's the fastest on that gen on this post. 1992

First computer as in first PC..? Well, a REAL OLDIE...

CPU: 8088
GPU: monochrome
RAM: 512Kb
HDD: 10Mb

That was back in 1989 when I bought it for around €900 (OMFG now I think of what I could make of that money today...)

Half a year later I extended some features and it became:
GPU: EGA (sadly the PC could not handle VGA)
RAM: 640Kb
HDD: 50Mb (added a 40Mb HDD)
Modem: 9600bps

And yes, I was starting my BBS as well ;-)

My first computer ever was an Atari 800XL that I bought of the payments my 1st job as paperboy back in 1985.

Let me see, I bought my first PC in 1992. ( '')

486DX-2 50MHz, RAM 8MB, 5.25' FDD, 3.5' FDD, 14' CRT, big enough HDD(80MB? 120MB? I can't remember). It was DOS machine, I had to learned to use it with a really thick book. I upgraded it with CD-ROM Drive 2 years later, added bigger HDD. Oh, I remember using Windows 3.0 and 3.1(my first legal copy of software), and played Warcraft II which was my first purchased game. . When I bought Windows 95, I replaced it with Pentium.

I had a floppy like that from somewhere but I never used it... as intended, I removed the inner flexible disk and used it as storage for my drivers CD from my first PC... and when I went one time at the service to fix it I gave the guy the drivers CD and he was like "Uhh, I don't think we can use this anymore..." but was relieved when I told him there was a CD inside instead =)
