The only thing that makes you more 'awesome' than me is your video card. But I don't envy micro stutter.

Edited by: Kravick Drasari on 17/01/2009 12:06:44 I used to buy top of the line stuff. However, I realized I was throwing my money away as the technology advances so fast you spend way less money by getting a really good motherboard and then upgrade as the price comes down on hardware. Sure, you can't play the latest games on OMFGWTFBBQ maximum right away but the game isn't going any where. I always end up playing them through more than once and not during the same time span.
I use the money I save to buy pizza and beer. |

The depreciation on that thing in 3 months alone is probably going to be about what I just spent on my new rig. That being said, that's one sweet setup you have there |

I suspect my laptop cost less than half of that lot, and it can play everything in 1920x1080 just fine.

What Razer mouse did you get? I got a Lachesis on my current rig, so unless you got one of those i can at least claim to have a better mouse than you (until i build my next rig (roll on summer), but even then i doubt I'll get as many HDD's as you)
I'm glad you didn't buy the Razer headphones (or maybe you did but didn't list it), because i would be laughing at you 'cause the build quality of them is shockingly awful (but they do sound awesome when they are working) |

Quick semi-related question: Advantage of one large drive over two smaller ones. From my experience, hard drives fail. Best not to put your eggs all in one basket? |

Problem with that is once you buy the diamond necklace who will buy it from you if you want to sell it? Pawn shop? They are not going to give you any where near the value its worth. |

Computers: Make the world go round, can send a man to the moon and back, help cure diseases and launch nukes.
Gold and Diamonds: Good conductors of electronics and Drill bits.
Women havent made the better investment judgment, humanity just puts value on stupid ass things.
To OP:
Nice box but the amount of RAM you have alone is just such a waste, funds could have been used on another upgrade to your rig. What are your bench marks? -------------------------------- To borrow a phrase:
Players who post are like stars, there are bright ones and those who are dim.

Well it would make a good rig for AutoCAD or photoshop. Got any parts from your old computer for sale? After all, everyone needs some type of spacer in their sigs to show it's not part of the post.

Originally by: Jacob Mei funds could have been used on another upgrade to your rig. What are your bench marks?
no benchmarks yet. like i said the case isn't here yet too much ram? maybe today it is. as most of us know, what is probably too much today is ideal tomorrow and what is sufficient today is soon to be lacking hell, i also could have built 3 boxes for just over a grand apiece and all would have ok.
waste? it's only a waste if your thinking about your money. this is my money. i think a cfo that has 4 personal jets is a waste (hell he can only use one at a time). but he would probably disagree with me
stupid? stupid awesome is more like it
Originally by: Daelorn WHERES THE SECOND GTX 295?!
when they get closer to being a midrange card i'll get another one and sli them all together.
honestly i was more expecting people to show me their new systems (it is christmas time). didn't anyone out there splurge for the top end i7 chip? (it's the only one that takes advantage of that 6.4GT/s interface. i wanted to but alas i too have my limits) |
