Title: Worst PC for Gaming?
Post by: Firestar on January 04, 2010, 01:00:35: Who here is it, that thinks they own the honorary title of having the worst PC for gaming?

Here's my system:

1.6 GHz Processor
Crappy Intel Graphics
2 GB of Ram (Get's eaten up by Vista quite fast)
And Vista..to top it all off... >:(

I'd say I have a fair chance of having the worst PC on here?

Intel Core i7 860 @ 2,8 ghz (8 CPUs)
4GB RAM

It's illegal to put OSx on any non-Mac hardware.

There is nothing wrong with vista, if you have a machine that can run it.
