Reminds me of the good old days with my Q6600 + 8800GTS G92. Built in 2007, it has just been replaced this summer.
 
Man my laptop failed me quite some time ago. Currently using my sister's laptop for college. Seeing these builds make me wish my laptop survived just in time for my final year in college. Good luck to everyone!
 
Quite a few similar systems, however I wish we could get two winners. I feel like running a 660 or a 650 ti, assisting them with the costlier components could free them up for a much easier time in upgrading those cards at a later time. Its what I would ask for!

Hoping to get my wife's system in at some point. Need to get around to getting that info together and submitted... Gen 1 AMD APU is NOT helping her much...
 
Definitely some winners on this round. Had to cast my vote for bruce! I'm still rocking that core II duo and its running like a beast... Well kinda haha.
 
The Dyson definetly wont win, but I dont care. Im voting for it because having the worst components isnt the thing that determines if you win or lose. For example, you could have, lets say a gtx 750 and an i3 6100 but play only minecraft, far cry and old games. Or, you could have a 770 and a i3 6320 but do much more serious and demanding things, like video editing, content creation etc. When you look at it from this perspective it really should make you reconsider just a little. (Also I rly wanna win sth xD)
