  • Where is build

  • so, did you build it?

    probably no

  • At least £3k

  • HOLY MOLY! The only thing I would do is 16GB of RAM

  • @pkerry12 my pc rig costed me around 900$ and i can run Crysis with latest patches and all on my 24' LCD display, and thats 1920*1080, with average fps around 60 , so it does not haz to be expensive.. dude.

  • This is why America is broke.

  • @EdmondOFlynn most PSUs are the same form factor, most are universal

  • @EdmondOFlynn thats just stupid

  • Yeah I agree you can get a decent build once every 5 years for 1 to 2k spending 5 is not worth it ever.
