Re: New Computer Configuration

Well, seems to me the OP's question has been answered.

Right, and as some people can not handle themselves and stop their provocative behaviour, I'm closing this thread.

Meaningless provocative behaviour is not appreciated on these forums, not even coming from long time members. Keep that in mind, please.

Re: New Computer Configuration

How about we call it a day for arguing, subtle insulting and other kinds of trouble.
Everyone, get off everyone's back please, thanks.

Re: New Computer Configuration

Mhurron just b/c you cant get a nice computer like that since its so called "wasting money" doesn't mean you have to hate on other ppl who can

Here's a little story. About a year ago, I decided to build a computer. I got the parts; all nice stuff, a good graphics card, CPU, motherboard, RAM. Wonderful case. Cost around $1600 total. Put it together. Didn't work. RMA'd parts. Didn't work. Took it to a shop. Didn't work. All the costs put together, I've probably spent about $2000 on it.

I wanted a nice computer like this because my current computer was having troubles playing games. That paperweight has been sitting around for months now, completely useless, and you know what I've done? Got a nicer monitor and a $30 graphics card for my old computer. It's still a little slow, but it plays any game I can be bothered to throw at it.

If I wanted to get a new computer, I could get one that could play games and look beautiful for under $900. And it would be a laptop.

Trust me. If you want to have a great gaming setup, you're better off going with something low to mid range, and buying something new for it every so often. This also has the huge benefit of allowing you to buy things when they're on sale. For example, if you have 1GB of RAM, and then you see some insane deal on some 2GB sticks, you can buy two of them and have your 4GB. If you have a relatively meh card, and some vendor marks down their previous top-of-the-line model to make way for a new one, you can get the deal. If you don't do a ton of backup stuff, start with a modest hard drive, and by the time you need to upgrade to something large, you'll be amazed by how much storage prices have fallen.

Re: New Computer Configuration

Re: New Computer Configuration

No one here is jealous, rest assured. Especially not Mhurron.

Re: New Computer Configuration

And seriously, as I said on the last page, if your main focus is playing FFXI, then paying for top of the line everything is so silly.

Umm first of all I never said it was just to play FFXI, second Mhurron just b/c you cant get a nice computer like that since its so called "wasting money" doesn't mean you have to hate on other ppl who can =) if FFXI is all I needed the laptop for i'd stay on my shitty one, but once again this just go's to show your know nothing. Oh and one more thing I'm not getting those 2 computers for the hell of it, I'm getting them so they can last me a few years before I have to get a new one, but honestly I dont see a reason to explain myself but since I dont like being insulted for no reason other than jealousy I felt that was a time I should go against my own morals.

Re: New Computer Configuration

. . . And eventually wonder why you paid top dollar for a machine that will eventually become obsolete.

If you can't understand it in Feba-Mhurron terms, maybe Grif-Sarge terms will work better for you:

Re: New Computer Configuration

If you pay for a top of the line PC you can play Crysis on Medium settings.

If you spend money to play Crysis, you've gone beyond silly. That's just retarded.

Re: New Computer Configuration

Actually, it's always silly.

I dunno about this. If you pay for a top of the line PC you can play Crysis on Medium settings.
