Since TF2 isn't a very taxing game, hardware-wise, it can be played on a fairly inexpensive PC. I was just curious what everyone is running, regardless if it is high-end, low-end or in between. I'll start with my most active build:

CPU: AMD 8 Core FX-8350 Black Edition
Memeory: 16 GB PC3-12800
Motherboard: I honestly don't know other than it is a Gigabyte.
Video Card: Gigabyte AMD Radeon HD 7950 - hand me down from my son.
Monitor: Acer 24" - don't recall the specifics, but nothing high-end. I paid $120 for it 3 years ago.
Keyboard: Rosewill Cherry MX Red - don't recall the model, but basic otherwise, no backlighting, etc.
Mouse: Razer Abyssus Mirror
Hard Drives: OS is an old 72 GB SSD - don't remember the specs other than it is too small and I need to upgrade.
Data/applications/games is a 1 TB Western Digital Black.
 
Up until about a month ago, I was running these specs:

1.7 GHz
2 GB RAM
225 GB HDD
Integrated Gfx

Now I got an upgrade that put me above 30 fps:

1.9 GHz
4 GB RAM
350 GB HDD
Integrated Gfx
