what are your specs?

i7 7700k ocd to 5ghz and a 1080. Not the best but for what I do it's good.
 
one of those HP tougher laptops they use in hospitals with the ram maxed out
got it cheap refurb, finished refurbing it when I got it since they just deleted the user and didn't clear out the registry or anything
kinda old by this point but I'm keeping it going
battery is a little loose so it's not so lap-able but I usually docked it anyway so no big deal
 
Lenovo Yoga 710 laptop from 2016. Has Nvidia GEForce graphics and ssd. Been a pretty nice computer
 
Main PC: Ryzen 1200 with an RX 480 8GB.

Back Up from a pre-built: Ryzen 1400 with an RX 570 4GB.

Latter was a birthday gift and a way to pass the time since I'm currently living in another state until a family member gets better. Wouldn't mind bringing the Back Up home with me and making it as a back up or a PC turned glorified gaming console.

Daily driver is an older Asus ROG laptop that weighs like 20 fucking lbs. Core i7-4700HQ, 16GB RAM, GeForce GTX 860M, dual boot Linux Mint on 250GB SSD and Win 10 on a 500GB SSD. I want my next laptop to be Ryzen, just waiting on some good ones to hit the market. This laptop is barely hanging on. I had to put large screws through the lid hinges to keep the lid attached.

Torrent/transcode machine is a Core i7-2630QM which is a socketed mobile (socket G) that I salvaged from my previous HP laptop. Installed on a mini-ITX board. 8GB RAM with a 2TB WD Blue drive. It's old and x265 transcodes take forever, but it gets the job done.

NVR for my security cameras is a Core i5-3470, 8GB of RAM, and SSD for the OS (Ubuntu Server) and 2 HDDs in RAID 1 for the video storage.

I want to build a Threadripper machine for my 265 transcodes.
 
i7 7700k with a 2070 Super. Need to upgrade motherboard/processor at some point, but it handles everything I throw at it well.
 
I don't have anything new, but I feel like my stuff is relatively interesting.

Desktop:

Asus P9X79-WS motherboard; X79 chipset; using a modded BIOS for NVME support.
Xeon E5-1680v2 8c/16t @ 4.5ghz cooled with a 240mm AIO and 4 Noctua 120mm fans in push/pull.
64gb (8gb x 8) Corsair DDR3-2800 (via XMP) in quad-channel --forget the actual speed since bclk is overclocked but I fucked with it to keep it around 2800.
2x GTX 980ti in SLI
WD Black 512gb NVME via PCIE adapter (boot drive; partitioned into two equal-sized partitions: one for Windows 10, one for MacOS)
4x SATA3 1TB SSDs in 2 RAID arrays (one for Win, one for MacOS) for storage
A PCIE USB 3.0 card (compatible with MacOS, since the onboard USB3 isn't).
Running Windows 10 and MacOS High Sierra (the GPUs are holding me back from upgrading to Mojave or Catalina; no Web Drivers :( )

Considering selling the 980ti's on eBay to go towards funding a Radeon VII or other Catalina-compatible GPU so I can stop being two releases behind on MacOS.

Laptop:

Alienware M17x I found on Craigslist for like 200 bucks (dunno if it was stolen or what, but the guy seemed okay) and have upgraded since.

i7-4930MX @ 3ghz
32gb DDR3 at 2133mhz
GTX 765m (upgradeable, which is nice)
3 480gb SATA SSDs (two internal bays, one optical bay converter) and one 480gb mSATA SSD
Running Windows 10 and MacOS Mojave
Hacked BIOS so I can get the 765m working in MacOS rather than Intel HD.
Upgraded coolers for CPU/GPU (more heatpipes, higher RPM fans). The temps are surprisingly non-godawful.

Basically used as a mobile version of my desktop.
