Is this decent? http://pcpartpicker.com/p/pZKr

Is this better then my current pc?

Looks good except for your PSU - you're going to need at least 650W or more to power all of that together. 400 won't do you justice.


So I guess it's about time I post the build I did for my PC. HERE WE GO COMRADES

Case: NZXT Phantom 410 Mid Tower Crafted Case (White/Blue) - $119.99 CAD
Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-M PRO O.C. - $139.99 CAD
CPU: Intel i5-2500K Quad-Core Unlocked - $199.99 CAD
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 670 - $379.99 CAD
RAM: Patriot Gamer 2 Series 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600MHz - $19.99 CAD
PSU: Corsair Professional Series HX750 - $154.99 CAD
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB - $79.99

Total came to about $1235.58

This is the PC:

you don't need 2 loving gtx 690s

I have one 670 that I built and It's stellar, two 690s would be completely pointless.

I generally don't like the idea of a hamster, they don't live very long and they need to be cleaned a lot.

The last hamster my brother had, lived for about a year and a half. They're fragile creatures. Be careful with him/her.

Eksi Tenex does not have one personality, but 3 respective personalities. Under the names Eksi, Tenek, and Siten, they represent the three personality, mental and physical differences that make up Eksi. They all live on three islands, secluded from eachother.

While Eksi assumes his normal form, Tenek represents his anger and strength, as Siten represents his agility and hyper-activeness.

I prefer debit cards, keeps me in budget and out of debt. I can't see myself getting a credit card in the near future.

This. I won't really be using this new VISA for anything at all unless I get trapped in Toronto with no money and I need a train home.

I mainly signed up for the VISA so that I could get an early start on my credit rating. Which will be loving phenomenal.

Encase anyone was wondering as well, I got $5000 worth of inheritance from my late aunt, and I also have a CIBC "Advantage Card" (visa/debit hyrbrid, meaning it's a debit card that I can order things online with).

I haven't been here in a while though, but when I saw this on steam under the Steam Greenlight, I thought i'd come back and wish the best for Blockland to get on. I originally thought that Blockland being on steam would be bad, but now that I think about it, i know will benefit the game overall, despite the few drawbacks. :)

I will soon be buying some stupid wireless headset thing that has 5.1 surround sound only because my bedroom is right next to my mother's bedroom and I won't be able to play video games loudly at night once my room is finished upgrading and I have to move up there again.
