My hobby besides gaming (PC wise) is PC building, tweaking, and Overclocking.

I was wondering if there were any other tweakers around, and what hardware you all are playing the game on.

Processor: Core 2 Duo E6600 @ 3.3 ghz
Motherboard: MSI P6N-SLI Platnium(650i)
CPU cooler: TuniQ Tower 120
RAM: 2gb Patriot DDR2 6400 @ 800 mhz 4-4-4-12
Video Card: BFG 8800 GTX Overclocked to 630/2000
Sound: XiFi - Extreme Gamer
Windows/program drive: 2x WD 250gb 7200rpm HDD RAID-0
Power Supply: Fortron Source group 600 watt
Case: Antec Ninehundred
K/B: Saitek Eclipse keyboard
Moniter: Viewsonic VX2235wm 22" High Definition widescreen LCD

Here are some pics of it when I had the Aero Cool Dominator installed. I replaced that with the TuniQ Tower 120.

I play on an Inspiron 9400 laptop, Core 2 1.6, 2 gig ram, nvidia geforce go 7900 (256meg), plays it on very high without much problem, though I usually have it set custom/high for a little smoother experience :)

Nice laptop....I bet the 7900 rox!

I am not only looking for the high end guys. I have a friend that plays on a 9800 Pro.

I am just a hopeless hardware head and wanna see what everyone's playing on ;D
