Not bad but I think if you would have complied with MG's fisting  :lube: request you could have gotten a nice sound system to.   :lolz:

Could you get a cooling system or something, I know you make videos too and that takes a lot of processing and heat from what I remember when I used to do that but I was working on a laptop so it probably overheated faster.

I usually only look at video cards, and you are getting the best one.

Not the best for your money but its price is at an all time low, so do it.

You gonna play some bf3 with us? We are having a great time with some non-patched glitches too.

Man-O-cock, it comes with beats audio SC. So no fisting necessary! (I do like where your mind is though)  :coolie:


Malbertz,
If you think it's worth it, I'll add a cooling system..what would YOU recommend?

And if someone were to PM me a link to this so called BF3, I'd start playing again.

I've never assembled my own computer when buying so I don't know parts but I always upgrade where I buy from for things that say cooling, thought you would have known some, but I'm sure Scooby knows cooling systems. I'm also not saying you need to buy one but it would give your computer a little longer lifespan for maybe $10 - 20, but here is a link to some of the ones that I would get:

BF3, the cheapest I could find considering its $39 that is good I spent around $100 since I bought the original then the premium.

Yo misfit, what is your max budget to spend on this PC? Let me know what you're looking to do with this computer (gaming?, media editing?) and I'll build you something good.

Y0 Scoobs, I already went through with the plan and that beast should be here in about a week.  I ended up spending just over 1900$ for a couple of little extras as well.  I would have done a DIY but I'm impatient and the & was burning a hole in my pocket like the tip of my, well....you know.

Woot!

  Seems like Dell's outsourcing is coming back to the states but still using hindus.

The Computer got here yesterday, it is indeed a BEAST.

I did a test render against my other comp,

Rendering a 30 sec animation on the new one took 1:12
the same animation took 5:32 on the old one.

And this is before any overclocking and optimization.

Just back to work as usual Beatle, but faster!  :shoot:
