lol parents who think they know technology
My mom thought that when ? said he'd send me the SS13's admin files, she thought that they are virus files bent on getting my comp's admin account's password.
He knows a lot about technology. He works at Apple. He is just... Unnaturally biased.
You could probably build a decent one for $800.
Mac vs Pc hardcore.
My PC costs that much and hardly ever lags. Aim for a good graphics card, I realised that that's what causes most of the lag.
CPU is more important nowadays IMO.
Kinky.
Those are my parents, guy.D:
Use Linux and make it a threesome.
Get a decent motherboard with PCI Express 2.0. A decent video card like a 260GTX maybe or preferably a 460GTX if you want to spend the extra 50 bucks. 3 Gigs of ram is all you really need but make sure to get that gaming ram because that does make like a 10 fps difference. Get at least a dual core processor and that'll turn out to be like 1,200 dollars maybe? Maybe even less.
