New, upgraded computer!

[ROFLBRYCE]

Finally upgraded my crappy $400 Best Buy rig. Put a little more money that I wanted to into it, but I'm happy. No more LoL on lowest settings! No more freezing when fullscreening a YouTube video! I get to actually play the games I have on my Steam account now!!!!



PSU: 650W Power Supply (Up from 400W)
RAM: 8GB (Up from 4GB)
GPU: Radeon HD 6670 2GB (Up from Intel Integrated)
Motherboard: ASUS F2A55-M/CSM (Up from crappy Intel motherboard)
Processor: AMD A6-5400K (Up from Intel I-3)
Harddrive: 1TB Sata-II (From old computer)[/td]



This thing FLIES compared to the old setup. Now I'm just waiting for all my games to download, I only get around 200kb/s downspeed where I'm at, the bane of my existence living in a small town.

I wish I had money to build a desktop. I'd play games on it and surf internet on this cheap acer laptop

Just buy it piece by piece! I've just been scraping every penny and limited myself to spending so much on parts, it took a little while but I finally got this badboy together.
