NewEgg really needs to update their stock dang it.
-
@vt3c I hope so. I've ordered the parts for my first gaming computer (yayyy) and they're all flying to me except for the motherboard. And I can't find it at a good price anywhere else on the internet.
-
@vt3c Not bad. Only reason I'm able to do it now is because of tax returnrs. Other than that it's a low end Gateway for me.
-
@vt3c Thanks. :) From what I can tell it'll be a decent machine, I just have to wait for my parts. And patience is not a virtue I have ever possessed.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Did you get a decent power supply? I got almost the same CPU, let me tell you that it's dayum power hungry.
-
@mhyshka I've got a 500W which in theory should be fine. I'll have to see what happens though.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx My 550W (bronze) wasn't enough. But i got the FX-8350, i think you might have to upgrade that part too. This CPU can ask for almost 350W when loaded!
-
@mhyshka Well dang it. I'll see what I can find. Thanks. :D
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Whatever, i think you should try with yours, but even if it works, she might die sooner or later =P
-
@mhyshka And I don't want that.... Any idea on what brands to go for/avoid?
-
@vt3c Well, I guess there's always room for upgrading down the road.
-
@xeleanorxrigbyx Corsair / Cooler master / Thermaltake are my personnal favorites. You should simply avoid any no name block. Imo, you should go for 650W at least.
