Finally getting a new computer!
A very generous friend of mine recently built a new rig, and offered to ship me his previous gaming computer, which should be more than sufficient to play WoW and other games at medium-high settings :D
I've already purchased Portal 1 and 2, the entirety of the Half-Life 2 series, Magicka, and of course I have WoW and a free copy of Diablo III (eventually :P). Now if only I could afford Skyrim.... :rolleyes: The computer should be here and ready to go by Friday of this week, and I AM SO EXCITED. No more 13.3" screen at 1280x800 res, no more 4fps in any and all raid environments, and not nearly as many hardware restrictions on games :D FINALLY! EDIT: Portal 2: $7.49 The Orange Box: $9.99 Magicka: $2.50 Skyrim: $40.15 Borrowing money from your younger brother to buy the aforementioned games: priceless. |
Congrats! What are the specs? How much (if any), did he charge you?

My previous computer:
- 2007 Macbook - Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0ghz - 2gb ram - Intel GMA 950 Integrated Video Card - 13.3" monitor, 1280x800 New computer: - Phenom II X2 Dual Core 3.4ghz - 5gb ram - Radeon HD 4650 (I think, I can't remember exactly) - 20" monitor (I think), 1920x1080 I'm SO excited! I'll be able to play Diablo III, Skyrim, you name it :D Also, I'll finally be less limited when making UI's, which will be REALLY nice. |

I am sorry, but how have you not been able to afford a new computer for 5 years? Getting a PC that runs the mentioned games shouldn't cost you more than 500$
How old are you? I don't mean this as an insult, just curious :) |

Also, to clarify, this computer is a 2007 model, but I got it used in 2009. I haven't been sitting on this comp for 5 years ;) |
Well, at least you got awesome games to play now. Good taste! :)
