    Re: New computer build finished

    Buy your machine piece by piece and form it as time goes. It's worth it. Just buy high end parts so you know you're set for the long haul. I'm debating on ripping out the power supply tonight to replace with a gold rated instead of bronze. But my voltages seem to be steady again. So guess it'll go untouched for hopefully a few months. . .

    Alienware steamboxs are cool. They aren't the highest end rigs but they aren't made to be. They are a great way to transition from console to PC or at least have the option to run PC games with better than console settings. I've used Alienware for years now. Still have two laptops. One From 2011 that my wife uses now and my current from 2015 17R2 i7

    Keeping it clean and still optimizing. Today this system ranked the highest scoring PC built around an LGA1150 platform with SLI 970 GPU!

    Ok new keyboard and mouse to get that quality game stepped up a ton... More wire cleanup and other stuff. I spend too much time cleaning this with the cats running all around with it!

    Maybe I can finally make an updated retic collection video now :-O

    Jesus.. that is some epic stuff. I prefer my console, though, as the only computer game I play is the Sims.Maybe I'd play more PC games if it wasn't do expensive to get a good gaming computer... you wouldn't happen to know of a cheap laptop that runs games well, would you? 😃

    You can build a desktop for about the same price as a new console that plays better than a console if you time sales and aren't too picky about monitor refresh rates and such as that will drive the price up.

    I use an Alienware 17r2 for gaming laptop but it's not cheap lol half the cost of my entire build you see here to be honest. eBay has some older but very formidable gaming laptops from Alienware for cheap. Check out the 14r2 I gave my wife my old one from 2011 and it still handles modern games decently with its 900p screen. It may be on eBay soon though as she wants to go back to having a MacBook .
