Not my turning point gaming rig.
Reeper | 6:25 PM on 04.03.2008 6 comments


So I have this computer, and am looking for an upgrade. Am I late to join the contest? Yes. Do I care? No. Easy come, easy go right? Anyways, let's get to the pictures.



The specs:

Radeon 9800 XT...uhhh....

Yeah, I only know my graphics card. I have no idea what else is in my rig. I know that it has enough processing power to play The Orange Box, F.E.A.R., and Far Cry well enough, but it is time to advance my gaming 'puter's portfolio. Games like Crysis, Bioshock, and Gears of War won't run on this thing. I'm even pushing it with Half Life 2: Episode 2. And this computer isn't really mine. Sure, it's in my room, but my parents may take it back. I also forgot to mention I'm joining the Air Force, and my computer gaming needs will most likely not be met when I leave the nest. I'm looking for this as m saving grace...kinda. If not, I'll just drop some cash for a PS3. Yeah.

Not much of a blogger (ain't got time), more of a lurker. Meh. I was front-paged kinda, twice. Exciting.

I have a Marvel Zombie fanboyism that Rivals Snaileb...minus the 360 faceplate :|
