64 bit baby, yeah!

// August 8th, 2006 // Geeky Stuff

I’ve finally upgraded my computer after what feels like god knows how long! I’ve finally ditched shoddy Intel and gotten onto AMD. Before, I had a Pentium III 1.2Ghz PC with 1.5Gb SD-RAM. Now my PC is running on a sweeeeeeet AMD Athlon 64bit X2 Dual-Core 3800+ with 1Gb DDR-RAM. The speed is noticeably different! The PC doesn’t stop to think when I reply to an email or anything like that. I haven’t tried it with any games yet (it came with a built in video card so that’s been updated too!) but I’m sure it’ll have improved that by quite a bit!

But that’s not all! I’ve also replaced one of my case fans with a Blue/Green UV fan, switched my IDE cables for Blue/Green UV sensitive tidy IDE cables and installed a UV bulb on the bottom of my case. Now it has an eerie glow from within the case as well as on the outside! I’m going to install a switch soon so I can just turn the lights on and off at will though.
