Re: Computer Specs
I currently have an okish laptop, but i am building a much better mid-range gaming comp.
i3-2100 @ 3.1 GHz CPU (yes, only dual core, but it beats most AMDs, and i plan to upgrade to an i5-2500K which beats all AMDs)
Radeon HD 6850
4Gb DDR3 RAM @ 1600Mhz
750w psu (can't remember details)
P67 16x 8 PCI express Motherboard
1TB samsung F3 spinpoint HDD
Antec 300 illusion case
I think thats it. I have my list of stuff on my laptop and i am posting on my iPod, so i might have forgotten somthing.

Re: Computer Specs
I don't know what are the system requirements for SSP (Survival Single Player) Minecraft, but I know that a SMP (Survival Multiplayer) server need at least 100MB of RAM per user who is online. Try pressing F3 while in the game (SSP or SMP). If the graph that shows up is bigger than a 1/3 of the screen, you probably need a better computer.
@MasterOfDeception That is an decent laptop, but an i3 does not beat "most AMDs". An i3 is a "entry-level" CPU that really isn't that powerful. In fact, Intel and AMD are about neck-and-neck in processor performance right now.
@what-the Nice! My computer was made in late 2008, and gets a 4.8 (with about 15 Google Chrome tabs open 
)
@rdococ On your computer, search "System", and click the result named that. You will get more specs on your computer there.

Re: Computer Specs
Mine sounds quiet at startup, and it was made in 2007- Wait, Windows 7 was made in 2009! I never even upgraded from Vista! I might have build 7000...
EDIT: Nope, build 7600.
