    I've recently built a new computer, it's a desktop. I couldn't stand the HP laptop I'd bought and so sold it to a friend. The LCD angles on it because the hinges aren't the same type on each side + they only have 2 hinge connections instead of 4. You see on a door there are 3 hinges which keep it level, on the laptops HP makes they have 2, a left an right. With no supporting hinge the thing is dependant on the hinges being perfectly aligned. Even after sending it into HP they could do nothing, it's a fairly pathetic design flaw if you ask me but only something a nut like me would notice. So without further ado I submit to you my system:

    All I'm going to say is this, I ran Half Life Episode 2 with maximum everything and a 1620x1050 widescreen resolution. If Oblivion can't run then screw it!

    AMD Phenom 9500
    550 Watt PSU
    2 GB DDR 2 800 MHZ
    Vista x64
    Onboard RealTek Audio
    ATI 2600 XT DDR3 256MB
    750 GB SATA II

    So what'cha think? Monitor is 22-inch widescreen :S got at discount with mail in rebate = 200 :S had to drive around to find one.

    Yep, so guess people b4 I get it, will Oblivion run on here if Half Life 2 was completely maxed out and ran fine :S w/ res set to 1680x1050

    I'll tell you results later

    It isn't whether or not "we" like it, it is if YOU enjoy it.

    Well one simple reason is that knowing a number of operating systems and not just limiting yourself to one can aid when diagnosing problems. Each OS can be added to a full embodied Resume and perhaps be the niche that seals the deal when it comes to the criteria of a higher paying job.

    My computer can run HL2 games on full spec, and it can run Oblivion on full spec too, and my computer is far inferior to yours.

    You should have no problem.
