Congrats dude, you're a better skater than a 6 year old who has only been skating 14 months..

shaun white btw it's a little boy you guys.

I could've sworn we heard of another member wanting to donating a large amount of money before.

lol..

.... but that doesn't change the fact that when more than 5 youtube videos are on one page, it lags my browser meaning it lags the video I want to play.

Sometimes I want to hide that funny video thread so you guys can get the fuck over replying with a link to that post whenever someone makes their own post. Hell I love funny youtube videos and I never view that thread because I don't like 15 videos loading at once, it makes the one I'm trying to watch load slower.

srsly tho.. has anyone figured this one out yet?

oi, just closing this because i know what i'm purchasing and how to build and maintain it. thanks everyone for the help.

I think it's 2 men. and Yes Bubbles.

Mmm, I actually like that case, if only it was pink or orange and not red.. About crossfire, obviously I don't need it running with such a low reso but if I do just use the 23" monitor that I have sitting collecting dust, it would make a bit more sense yes? & if I have the money to spend on it then Idk not seeing the negative still. & the games I play, are the only games I REALLY can play. I can't run new games without my computer basically dying or just shitty gameplay even on the lowest of low settings. Hence I don't buy games or even bother with them knowing full well my computer can't run them. I would love to play newer games, but it simply isn't possible with my current PC.

lol I have no real budget concerns, I already have the money just sitting there. It's more of do I just save it and spend on something else, or buy a new computer type thing. I could go higher, I could go lower but all in all I want the best for the money I'm spending so I don't have to upgrade for another 5 years. I just figured 1500 is the best budget for me since it's hard for me to justify spending anymore on a computer when it could go to just saving up for the future yakno. Though I do really like potshots build and already have it in my newegg shopping cart for a grand total of $1,225.87. Which isn't that bad, and I could probably buy the other video card now and crossfire but MEH.

Just saying, if I'm spending money to upgrade.. I don't want to upgrade to "well this can't run this and it's not all that good, but it'll save you money!" If the only thing "stunting" Potshots build would be a monitor then I don't see why when I can spend the money I'd purchase something worse simply to save a few bucks? Especially if chances are I'd just have to upgrade sooner because the build I just spend several hundred on still can't run newer games on high settings. Clearly I haven't upgraded in years, I don't follow hardware markets, or even the newest shit out anymore, nor do I care to once I build this new computer. There's a hell of a lot of fanboyism that gets old very fast. I already have a 23" inch monitor that doesn't get used at all even though I don't want to use it, I'll still try it out and decide which I prefer. I just didn't want to spend money on something I know I already don't like. tl;dr: I don't care about saving ~100 if it means getting something complete shit.

I mean I could trade my moms monitors again since she only uses her laptop now and use the 23" widescreen but I just hated it and it made my desk all cluttered =[

No, believe me I do NOT want widescreen, it wont fit on my desk comfortably, it will make me rage, and I will probably end up throwing whatever I have handy at it when drunk because it annoys me that much. I tried using one before and ended up giving it to my mom because I hated it. I imagine if I'm not currently getting fucking owned with an average of 20fps, I will be fine but thanks. Anyhow I think atm I have a 17" LCD(not 100% sure, but max reso is 1280x1024), which seriously fits on my desk perfectly. I could probably go a bit bigger but otherwise it'd just be a mess and I'd have to reorganize everything.

I fucking hate widescreen, so no thanks lol

Eh under $1,500 would be ideal. I don't have a preference over Intel or AMD honestly, whatever is the best for any given price is good for me. lol 2) I only game and listen to music, so gaming would be key here. 3) No I don't think so 4) My computer is roughly 5+ years old and so outdated that I'd rather just start over. 5) I shouldn't need a monitor, keyboard, mouse.

srsly tho. i need help building a new computer because my sadly outdated one can barely run battlefield 2. =[ and i want to play!

k me and 7 bots. got this

Go play PB.. or Napalm =]
