No need to spend big bucks. I think he spent close to 500$ alone on the graphics card :lol:

Especially if you don't game much you can cut down on pretty much everything and get older models. I'm looking to spend 1k max but would like to be able to run games on max settings. Would like to spend less than 1k though


depends on what games. 980 will soon not be enough because games need more than 4gb memory already with 1080p. wqhd and uhd? better wait for a new gpu
anyway you don't need max settings in everything. not much difference

I don't play much games that require crazy computer specs anyways. Some HotS and Overwatch when it comes out. Just want it to be smooth on high settings.

Yea I saw. Not decided how much I should spend....don't play computer games too much so I wouldn't think I need something expensive

Current one is my parents they bought years ago and spent like 500$. Seems to work perfectly. Bb spent big bucks, not sure if it's needed


bb spent big bucks so his pc can run new games on max settings for like 5+years the more you spend the longer it lasts vs new technology
but if your just using it to surf porn and stuff and not game why not get a laptop?

yeah laptops tend to get warm they got stands n shit for that though
also if you were to get a new laptop the new ones are likely much better then your current and wouldnt be running as hot due to being less stressed
but if ur that worried get a pc lol there doesnt seem t obe too many bang for your buck deals anymore shit advances so fast andp rices are keeping up with them lol

you could save on the gpu and buy a good processor. upgrade the gpu at some point if you feel like it.
