Got some action today :smug:
What would be funnier is a Downs dog.
Just ordered the parts for the new computer. :dance: It has a GTX460, an AMD 3.2 GHz quad-core, 4 gigabytes of ram and Windows 7 all wrapped up in a beautiful Antec 300. :h: [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] Plus it comes with Just cause 2 AND Mafia 2! :woop: [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] Aw SHIT I forgot thermal paste. God dammit.
I have a few hard times, but i'm feelin good today. :woop:
Will all the parts for it come in one giant box or several separate boxes? I ordered from Newegg. [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] My automerge!

Weakest spot in my PC :sigh: [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] Or I stop spending [B]EVERYTHING[/B] I have on my PC and start actually buying games. As you just heard, I'm playing Stalker and Minecraft all the time.

God dammit.[/QUOTE] do you have an aftermarket cooler? if not you won't need to worry about it. most aftermarket coolers come with a patch of pre-applied paste anyway. although it's good to have a tube around just in case [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=laurencedgreat;28618658]My CPU came with thermal paste already on the heatsink.[/QUOTE] go away :love:
[QUOTE=Zorlok;28618650]they will package the smaller components into one box[/QUOTE] So like, Ram, Processor, OEM Windows 7 and possibly the motherboard are probably gonna come in one box?

Was I supposed to? :ohdear:
[QUOTE=Big Ben;28618722]So like, Ram, Processor, OEM Windows 7 and possibly the motherboard are probably gonna come in one box?[/QUOTE] most likely. they usually stick the CPU / RAM / HDD / optical drive / other smaller components into one box [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Big Ben;28618722] I didn't buy a seperate cooler. Was I supposed to? :ohdear:[/QUOTE] no. you don't have to unless you plan on doing some overclocking. then i wouldn't trust the stock cooler. although if you did buy an OEM CPU you won't receive a cooler with it, just the processor.

[url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103808[/url] <- the one I bought.
ye those aren't bad. it's more or less the AMD counterpart to my Q9550.
Also, building a computer is really easy right? I mean, I know what the insides look like and everything and I've installed stuff like HDDs and DVD drives before, but I've never done anything more.

[editline]15th March 2011[/editline] that build will give you roughly the same performance that i have with my Q9550 and 5870. although i do have my CPU overclocked, and the 5870 is slightly faster than the 460. you'll be happy with it though. [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] i still think i'll be upgrading once i've got the cash. my GPU stays but everything else will go. the sandy bridge CPUs are too good to pass up.

I've been on a single core 1.8 ghz, 1 gigabyte ram and a Radeon x1050 for the past 4 years. :buddy: In fact, I'm happy as can be and I haven't even gotten the parts.
ouch [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] That's worse than mine and mine is pretty terrible Upgrading isn't a priority for me though so I'm not really that bothered
[QUOTE=Zorlok;28617860]oh god shit wow sounds terrible. go outside more. :frog: [editline]15th March 2011[/editline] mosy you should wait until you're out of the house again.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=mikeyt493;28618143]I hope you're kidding I mean really wow that is fucking pathetic Infact I laugh at you [img_thumb]http://i.somethingawful.com/u/garbageday/2010/more_frogs/zeroprime_01.gif[/img_thumb] :colbert:[/QUOTE] Hahaha
