I figured since Shroomery is only online,(which means you need to use a computer to get here), there must be some PC/computer hobbyists in here. I've been into computers ever since my Dad brought home the original IBM when I was 11 years old. Now, I'm into custom-building computers and playing PC games with ridiculously-amazing visuals (that's even better than consoles).
I was thinking of joining a seperate PC forum/social website, but then I thought, "why look for PC modder/gamers at Shroomery?"
So, Where's my PC Gamers and/or Modders at in the Shroomery?
If your a custom-built (or store-bought) PC user, please share your systems specs. Since we're all sharing, here's my rig that I bought from an Asian student (they know computers well, right?):
Case: Basic Black tower (nothing special) PSU: Logisys 450 watt dual PCI-Express 12volt rail output..............................(oh yeah, future ATi Cross-fire baby...) CPU: Intel Core Q6600 @ 2.4Ghz (Quad-Core)...................................................{Its frickin'-fast!} Motherboard: Biostar GF7050V - SE............................................................(pretty cheap, buts its new and it has HD audio and a PCI-E 1.0 interface) RAM: 1x OCZ 2GB PC54000 667mhz + 1x Ultra 2GB PC5400 667mhz.....................................(total: 4GB, but since the OS is 32-bit, its only 3.3 GB) Video Card: ATi Radeon HD 4850 512MB PCI-E...............................................(this I bought way before I got this PC, runs fast as hell and can even handle Cyrsis on High, although choppy). HDD: Seagate 120 GB 7,200rpm.......................................................(a 320 GB 7,200rpm Western Digital is on its way in the mail, aka LOTS more HD Porno Videos to download!) OS: Windows Vista Business 32-bit...............................................(lately I've had A LOT of blue screen errors, maybe a problem caused by the custom mix-and-match hardware?) Mouse: Wireless Logitech MX-Laser....................................................(note: MX Rocket is slang for Mushrooms + X (XTC), so I think it fits my use of it at the Shroomery well) Keyboard: Wireless Logitech................................................................(thinking of "downgrading" to corded: I don't like changing the AAA batteries) Screen: Dell 19inch LCD monitor w/ stereo speakers..........................................(bought used at an awesome price)
I'm also making this post because one of my recreational goals is to go to LAN party with my fast PC and do some group fragging!
Has anyone here in the Shroomery done a PC LAN Party before? Maybe you combine it with elements of the Shroomery, like a group trip that ends up with everyone tripping-out to crazy LAN party frag fests? Maybe the Shroomery would be interested in a PC LAN party, Shroomy-style!
I also I have a mysterious PC game error for all you Gamers and/or PC experts:
I have a Trouble-shooting mystery between my PC and Crysis: Warhead
Every time I try to load the level titled "Shoreleave" (the one with a-space-ship-crashed-in-forest loading splash screen) on Cyrsis: Warhead (the new one), it loads up to 82%, then the loading screen freezes and does NOT load anymore. I have to "crl-alt-del" to get out of it, and can't play the level! I can't even finish the game! So frustrating. FarCry (another CryTek game) runs *way* great compared to this game, and it was made for Win XP! I just don't get it.
Any ideas to what is causing the problem?
Besides trouble-shooting advice...
Wanna share your specs with us? What kinds of PC games you playing? Anybody use Nvidia's 3D feature? How is it on mushrooms?
And if your a hard-core modder, and actually custom-made your own case, I love to see your case pictures!!! I always wanted to make a Star Trek Borg-Cube themed PC case, anyone beat me too it?

I build all my PC's, sooo much cheaper. This is the PC I put together for $900 AUD ($500 USD at the time?) a bit over 12 months ago.
Case/PSU: Coolermaster Centurion/Antec 650w MOBO: Asus P45-SE CPU: E7300 core2 RAM: 4gb Kingston DDR2 800mhz VID: ATI 4850 - 512mb HDD: Samsung 640gb SATA, 7200rpm.
Me and ~10 of my closest friends do LAN's all the time, nearly monthly. Involves some new games (Crysis being one of them), some old games (LOVE Total Annihiliation, coop Duke Nukem 3D, some old Quake mods), plenty of torrent/porn leeching.
Plenty of beer, plenty of weed and many lulz!
