AMD PhenomII 955, overclocked to 3.795Ghz (Not too shabby considering I seem to have a 'leaky' one and I'm using air cooling.)
ATI HD4870 512Mb, overclocked to 810/1005 while playing games
RAM: 8Gb corsair 1066Mhz DDR2 memory (running at 920Mhz)
ASUS M3A79-T Deluxe motherboard
500Gb hard drive
850W coolermaster power supply unit.

I'm going to remove one or two of my RAM sticks to see if I can push my overclock higher, since I think how much memory I have is holding me back.

2.2 GHz quad core

4Gb RAM
300GB HDD + 1TB HDD

I tried overclocking to 2.4GHz but the computer made alot of beeping noises after the reboot and i got a big BSOD saying something like "Could not overclock reverting to original" so i havent tried since :(
Did you try going stright from 2.2 to 2.4? If so; that was dumb, quite frankly. Overclocking requires a slow, gradual climb of CPU frequency, voltage, and proper cooling. Patience and free time are things you need in spades.

I was curious to see what kind of PCs the gamers on this site use, so describe your PC's RAM and graphics card.
For example, my PC has 9 gigs of ram and a 1.08 gig graphics card.
1.08 gig graphics card doesn't say anything about how it is clocked etc.

Laptop - two years old.
CPU: Core 2 Duo T7500 2.2 GHZ (dual-core)
GPU: GeForce 8600M GT
RAM: 2x2 GB, one 666 MHz, one 800 MHz (upgraded recently)
Screen: 15.4" 1680x1050
Hard drive: 500 GB 5400 RPM (upgraded recently)

running a rig i put together for like $600ish over the last 2 years, old ass asRock mobo can't remember model number and dont care...

running:
CPU: 2.4Ghz dual core Intel core 2 duo
Ram: 2x2048Mb DDR2 800 OCZ Platinum
HDD: 1x80gb(my OS drive... old school Pata drive, almost dead now) 1x250gb Hitatchi Sata2
Video Card: Asus Radeon 2600 pro 512mb
Sound Card: Creative SB Audigy 2 pro

runs everything i need it to... runs almost every game i can think of trying on it on high graphics no problem... so i figure it's worth the $600... heh

also a word to those looking at Alienware pcs... DON'T! they're overpriced for what they are... essencially you end up paying out the ass for a fancy branded case and some zip ties... totally not worth it, build your own or buy one from someone else... I deal with www.ncix.com... they deal with Canada and the US and offer assembly options, so no worries there. they also have some damn fine sales on a weekly-bi-weekly basis... there's always something going way cheaper than usual... and overall they have damn fine prices. I can vouch for their reliability as i have never had problems with their service... just for the love of all things technological DO NOT buy retail or from alienware... as they'll take you for every penny you have and hand you an "Average" gaming pc that just looks shiny... and even then there are HUNDREDs of shiny cases out there, that won't be costing you in essence twice the price of the components inside it...

My PC is a pile of shit.
An old ASRock motherbord. 2GB DDR400 RAM. Sempron 2800+ 2GHz processor. Getting a new graphics card on monday to go in the AGP slot (yes AGP not PCI). You get the picture.
