Hi eveyone,
I thought itβd be a fun idea to share the specs of the computers we have, just to see what kind of hardware other people enjoy and compare systemsβ¦
Your post should go something like this:

[li]PC Make and Model (if applicable)[/li][li]Processor (CPU)[/li][li]RAM[/li][li]Graphics card (GPU)[/li][li]Hard drive(s)/solid state drive(s)[/li][li]What you use it for[/li][li]Anything else you want to add[/li][/ol]
Novabench is going to be a useful tool for me here, because it benchmarks your computer and gives it a score, which it then puts into a nice little box to share on forums. Iβll start.
