Obviously you don't realized how pitiful it is to like computers like that at our age. A Girlfriend can nullify that.

Dunno 'bout you, but some information would be nice.  Current specs, what you want to upgrade, and the parts you currently have selected as replacements.

For $400 you're going to get a pretty turd computer for the amount of stuff you're replacing. What do you have now?

Why do people say girlfriends in high school are pointless? You need to develop your social skills sometime losers.

I'm literally negative social. I never talk in school, I sit quietly, rush from class to class and try to keep out of the way. I have no friends.

And I have a girlfriend. o_o

Because they are. They're usually whores or it just never lasts.

It's a peice. I got it for free and am using it as a case. I'm pretty much just keeping the dvd drive, and replacing everything, so my current specs mean nothing for the most part.

What kind of games do you expect to be playing on a $400 budget?

Haha you're so bitter. You need social experience. You just can't up and decide to have a girlfriend at 24 and expect it to be easy after never having experience before.

Meh, I fail...

Nothing major at all. Things like tf2, cs:s, etc.

I have social experience. I've witnessed it before. I'm only fourteen anyway, I don't expect to find the love of my life so young.

I'm not trying to be bitter.
