Well, all bad things aside, my next pay is going to be around $450 or so. With this I'll be building a bit of a new rig and am very excited to do so. I haven't ever owned a good computer, so this is pretty awesome.
Here are the parts I have picked out.
- ASUS Motherboard. Two PCI 2.0 x16 slots, four 240-Pin RAM slots.
- AMD Phenom CPU. 3.4GHz quad core.
(Mobo/CPU combo - $250)
- 4GBs of DDR3 RAM. - $75
- 1GIG ATI SAPPHIRE gfx card thingy. $55
I'm psyched I found all this for how cheap it is. I'll be salvaging my old HDD, power supply, and etc from older computers for a bit, until I can upgrade those too.
All parts will be ordered from Newegg.com - Mostly for reliability and 3 day delivery. Also cheap as hell prices.
For now I can barely even play L4D, or animate without freezing up. Hopefully I can keep uploading YouTube videos and stuff. :C
That sucks. When my old computer fried, I didn't know all the cool stuff it had on it. It had a sweet graphics card and a lot of memory. I got a new computer and now I don't have a graphics card. Left 4 Dead looks horrible and lags really bad. :/
ReplyDeleteDon't worry Tate, just use your Mom's computer for a couple of weeks or so and your rig will come. Days passing really fast now. c:
ReplyDeleteI'm getting my new rig on Christmas though, I believe they will have an offer during that time.
