I failed to mention this in the video, so:
Both computers shown in this video were assembled by CyberPowerPC (http://www.cyberpowerpc.com) before they were a huge gaming PC manufacturer. Back then, you could choose literally any combination of parts, so long as they were parts from a certain list of companies (ASUS, MSI, CoolerMaster, Apevia, BIOSTAR, and XFX, to name a few). For instance, around the same time we ordered the green computer, my father ordered four computers from CyberPowerPC with BIOSTAR T6100-939 motherboards, Athlon 64 3500+s, 80 GB hard drives, and 1GB RAM, all in the same Apevia QPACK cases. I believe some of the units also had an additional GeForce 6600 GT.


The green computer originally had:
MSI MS-7135
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
512 MB Corsair DDR-400
160 GB Western Digital Caviar 1600 SATA I (1.5 Gb/s)
XFX GeForce 7800 GTX-256
Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2

It now has:
MSI MS-7185
AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200+
2 GB Samsung DDR-166
200 GB Maxtor DiamondMax 10 SATA II (3.0 Gb/s)
SAPPHIRE Radeon X1900GT 256 MB
Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3

The case is an Apevia CRUISER, the original model.
Also, the replacement motherboard was put in after the north bridge violently exploded in the original one. We also has to replace the CPU when that happened, which was replaced with an Athlon 64 3800+, and then I recently upgraded it to the Athlon 64 x2 4200+.


The Core 2 Duo system originally had:
ASUS P5N SLI
Intel Core 2 Duo E6850
2 GB ADATA DDR2-800
500 GB Hitachi Deskstar SATA II (3.0 Gb/s)
XFX GeForce 8800 GT-512 Alpha Dog Special Edition (don't ask, because I don't know)
Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit

It now has:
ASUS P5N SLI
Intel Core 2 Duo E6850
4 GB ADATA DDR2-800
500 GB Hitachi Deskstar SATA II (3.0 Gb/s) (actually a replacement unit)
EVGA e-GeForce 8800 GTS-640
Windows 10 Pro build 1511 64-bit

And I have no earthly idea what the case really is. It's a Xion case, that's all I know.


Thanks for watching, guys.
