Not my Turning Point Gaming Rig
HawtPawkitHero | 2:27 PM on 03.07.2008 3 comments



Yah, Other people look like they need a new system more than me, but that's not going to stop me from wanting it.
You see, my rig suffers from the "Fucking Old" syndrome. When I built it (3 years ago) It had some of the best parts in it. We're talking an SLI build when they were first made available from Nvidia. Wait for it... DUAL NVIDIA 7600GS!!! That power is insane, right? Also, an AMD Athlon 3500+ with a stock fan which was only recently replaced with a used opteron 650! The fan on one of the video cards is failing, so the computer is so loud that I now have to turn it off at night so I can sleep. The flashy lights, however, still work like a charm! I've lugged this system with me to numerous lan tourneys and such, and i'm missing the case screws, so the side panel often falls off. The motherboard's BIOS is corrupted, and no matter how much I update it, it's still faulty, giving me frequent Blue Screens of Death when using a USB drive.
So, as long as this contest stays truly "random" then i still have a hope of winning :3

WOW! That is a lot of dust! Would have thought of something wittier to say, but you caught me off guard...

Also, I'm digging that set-up!
