My Computer Specifications

Desktop Specifications

My computer is getting pretty ancient at nearly ten years old (it was built in 2015). It was a mid-range computer back in its time, but even now it still runs nearly everything I throw at it.

  • Operating System: Linux Mint 21.3 (with Cinnamon Desktop Environment).
  • Processor: Intel Core i7-4790K.
  • Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970.
  • RAM: 4x Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 1866 MHZ. That’s right–ancient RAM.
  • Motherboard: Gigabyte Z97X-UD3H.
  • Storage: Radeon R7 240GB SSD; PNY CS1211 480GB SSD; 2x WD Black 1TB HDD.
  • Monitor: Some antediluvian LG 1080p monitor picked up from Costco.
  • Keyboard: Corsair K68. I bought it because it’s waterproof. The action of its key switches isn’t bad, either.
  • Mouse: Corsair M65. I bought it on account of my large hands needing a similarly large thing to grasp and strangle.
  • Headphones: Koss PortaPros.

Laptop Specifications
