xMalachi's Birthday Swag: Awesome Girlfriend Edition
xMalachi \| 12:48 PM on 10.07.2008	11 comments

Today is my birthday and so far its been pretty great. My girlfriend gave me my gift earlier today and I must say that it was full of win :D. My dad and I built a computer and paid for some of it so that was my other present. Anyways, what I did was build a crazy budget computer and it is awesome. Here are the specs:

Antec Sonata 3 Case
2.8Ghz AMD Dual Core Processor 5400+ BE
700GB in HDD
LG 20x DVD Burner
256MB GeForce 8600GT
2GB of RAM
ASUS Motherboard (Don't feel like finding the specific model right now)

Total Cost: $306

I'm planning on picking up a 22 inch HP monitor in the future when I get enough cash. Its currently connected to my 37 inch TV but I'm not a big fan of it being there becuase I have nowhere to put my mouse and keyboard so it becomes uncomfortable quickly.

Here are the pics!

Girlfriend Birthday Gift!

And the new gaming rig

That shirt looks strangely familiar...don't you think? :P

And where can I go to get one of these so-called "awesome girlfriend" things? Are they sold out at all the stores?
