Getting a gaming PC tomorrow!

[JMocks]

I'm getting my gaming PC tomorrow. And I'm so giddy about it. Like, I don't know why I'm feeling this way. The only other times I'm like this is on Christmas Eve (even though I stopped getting good stuff three years ago). Man. I don't know why I'm sharing this. But. Oh well.

Make sure you check the specs.

I found that Best Buy computers on Display have internet access, so I'd suggest going on "Can you RUN it" and testing the specs on two games: Crysis 2 and Shogun 2.

Good luck, and godspeed

Wait did you order the parts and plan to put the thing together or...?

Yeah I ordered the parts and I'm building it.

Pray tell the Mobo? HDD? Optical? Power supply? OS?

 

[JMocks]

MOBO - ASUS M4N68T-M V2
OD - SAMSUNG 22X DVD±R DVD Burner Black EIDE / ATAPI Model SH-S222A - OEM
PSU - XIGMATEK ACXTNRP-PC602 600W

[Ru the Boatswain]

Less than pleased with the PSU, but good enough.

Yeah. The ****in' PSU's are expensive as hell. This one had 20 reviews or something, all five eggs.

 

[JMocks]

After reviewing my final order, I realized I forgot to order a HDD. :l I had two different carts. One cart on the official site, and a cart I made threw the NewEgg app which doesn't link your accounts. So I forgot to add the HDD to my NE app, and that's why my total was so low. Now I have to go to Best Buy and buy a HDD. Great. :l

Prepare to be F-d in the A.

Prepare to be F-d in the A.

Why?

 

[JMocks]

All my stuff just got here. So it begins!

 

[Brand]

Good luck! I have no idea what those specs mean, but it sure looks impressive! ;)

 

[Santoro]

Why?

Everything at Best Buy is expensive.

I'm an Amazon kind of guy.

Yeah. But I can't wait two to three days for shipping. Plus I had gift cards saved up.

Well. I'm posting from my new computer. :D It was real easy to assemble. Took me about four hours, but I was being careful. However, my CPU fan runs so ****ing loud it's actually annoying. However, I'll deal with it. Busy installing everything right now. Just wanna say thanks to Ru, Santoro, and Nexus for giving their input.

First and last time I reckon.

First and last time I reckon.

Why last?

On my Windows rating, I have a 7.5 or higher on everything except HDD, which is at 5.9

I've been playing some COD4. 15 v 15 is complete chaos.

T'was pulling ones chain fine sir.
