Windows 7 Ultimate SP2? There isn't an SP2 for 7 - only SP1! Unless you have Vista Ultimate SP2...
And 1000 Euros for a Pentium D system? Really? Is that the price when it was new?
1. Sorry I meant SP1
2. The computer is homemade(in pieces), the case only costed about 15-20 euros. The mobo, CPU, GPU, Fans and stuff made up the total of 1000 euros. Please note that this PC is 2,5 years old!

Sure we have outstanding specs, but we have a use for them: gaming and rendering.
My little brothers PC (he uses my laptop instead) has a Pentium D and 2 GB of RAM. No GPU.
I'm a HUGE fan of Minecraft, thus I want to record and upload... I'm currently using Bandicam, with LOADS of lag... I visited my uncle yesterday and he told me not to record full screen, because of lack of rendering power...
Also, I use Sony Vegas 12 to edit videos, exporting an 5-10 minute video at 480p and takes 1 hour!
So yeah, I use my computer to the max everyday for me to render videos and stuff.. Sometimes, when I need to render in high qualities I send the movie file and the video files to my friend and he does the rendering for me... I'm jealous of him... He has 2 GPUs (nVidia GTX 870)

About £3k lol when everything gets finished in about a week or so. New cable set, h110i gt, new fans and LED's, might even get a 850 pro 256gb as the write speeds on my current SSD are pretty bad and the 120gb is limiting. Sold my old system and made around £500 so far from parts i didn't need anymore so its not too bad (considering i got pretty much what i paid). Starting to look darn good though.
