In true Adonis style I prefer a PentiumPro with 1Mb cache - not many can afford such fine silicone craftsmanship...

OMG that site is still up and running !?! I used to go on there about 10 years ago to get the breakdown on the latest hardware, back then that would have been like a 32 megabyte video card, lol..maybe 64

I've used it myself a few times in the past but kept forgetting it was around - they do good benchmarking on the graphics cards

Yeah, really intensive, they pick everything apart and quantify it right down to the sole components...though I gotta say the original site was much better with way less spam , ads , click through's and pop ups... looks like the original guy sold it to some company and they just continued it on.

I haven't been to that site in over 6,7 years, lol

I go to Tom's hardware as well, but this http://www.overclockers.com/ is a great site too. The forums here are amongst the best if you have any questions regarding hardware or software.

Haha! My first computer back in the day. We paid approx 350$ for a 32k memory upgrade and it was worth every penny!
