I've been gaming on my laptop for 3 years now; leaving my old desktop idle.

This is my new. custom-built budget gaming rig. Budget PCs were once considered "crappy" to say the least; unable to run video games. BUT NOT ANYMORE. This is a slideshow of my new $600 build...

  • Double your performance for $800, but I suppose that's a bit too late.

  • Meh ... it's a good PC, a great upgrade from my older gaming laptop

  • nice setup you got there

  • best

  • Indeed. Planning to bust a 280GTX inside my build before mid December and smash a couple 1.5 TBs. At least 1 and at most 3.

    If you've got a good 60-80 bucks to spare, it's the time now, a good Terabyte now cost a range of that price!
