During the good old times of Half-life, it was also a time when my dad was a Mac guy and then my brother finally built a PC.

Guess I forgot to think of that when I made that post: 1280x1024 (not the best but I don't care at the moment) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817152028 decent/budgeted power supply For games I like to play FPSs and I like to have high settings. I may want to get Crysis at...

Finally getting my new PC parts in, except I still have enough for a GPU. I'm still running with a 8600 GTS. I was almost about to consider a 4870 until I heard that a 5770 is almost or possibly better. It's my birthday so I usually end up getting over $100 and I have about $50 on me right now...

I was probably considering a GTX 260, I probably won't be able to upgrade it for awhile until I get a job sometime soon. Same goes for the monitor

I knew about that, but I don't care about newer six cores coming out right now. But it's nice to see that I'll possibly be able to get a Phenom II X4. The monitor is a 17inch with a vga connector by the way.

I guess it wouldn't hurt to try, even if it doesn't work. I just hope I won't need all four cores later on.

It doesn't work all the time though. If it was 100% guaranteed I probably would have gone for that right away

So my potential PC upgrade is coming around and I need some suggestions. I'm using (and will upgrade sometime later) existing: Corsair DDR2 667 2GB RAM (will upgrade later) EVGA 8600GTS (will also upgrade in the future) WD 160GB 7200RPM PATA HDD Upgrading my Motherboard, Power supply, case...

I was either going to buy an Athlon II X2 or X3 (not X4 because if I got an X3 I could just unlock the 4th core on it), but I don't plan on getting anything from intel unless I wasn't on a budget. The GPU does enough justice for me so I won't be upgrading that until I get everything else I need...

I'm using an EVGA 8600GTS 512mb, but from the looks of the answers, I guess I better buy a bunch of new crap on my birthday

My brother gave me his old motherboard, cpu, and ram. Problem is that it's a pentium 4 and that should probably be upgraded to a dual or quad core for better gaming performance (I only get about 30fps on most games), it would be nice to go AMD since they have pretty good prices, but a new...

So glad I don't have to deal with the chodeliness of China

Here we go again!

okay

Count me back in

okay I'll do it
