New Computer is BUILT!!!

Post by Dudeman » Fri Apr 17, 2009 9:29 am

Finally, after months of being too lazy to get a job, doing work for the neighbors, and milking money slowly out of my friends and family, then going to the effort of putting the parts together, my new computer is built! The specs are as follows:

CPU: Triple core OC'ed to 3.57Ghz
Graphics Card: GTX 285
RAM: 6 gigs of DDR3 1600 RAM
HD: 640GB 7200 RPM (Meh)
OS: Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit

YAY

It's actually pretty easy, more like really fragile Legos than anything else, but thanks. Sadly, my power supply failed, so I have to order a new one, I'll probably buy a more respectable brand name this time, I heard bad things about Rosewill, but went with them anyways... Maybe I'll buy an Antec.

That is pretty epic. Congrats on the new computer! David and I used to build our own computers, but haven't made one for a while. It's a lot of fun and can be cheaper, plus they're very upgradeable. However, they tend to break down like 10x more frequently it seems.

Thanks, I was enjoying it before my power supply broke. Eh, well, when it does break down, at least I know the inner workings and such.

There are more problems with Lugaru in Vista than in any Mac or Windows.

Good luck fixing that.
