The Computer Megathread

You do know that HDDs have no impact on game performance right?

Yeah, but my computer is pretty much about to die so i figured if i just replaced the hard drive it would work again.

also my mom said that after this one dies i'm not allowed to get another one because i'm too young :c

i have used over like 700GB of my 1TB HDD and I'm ordering a 1.5TB one for more games. you totally need to have more than 500GB if you're having Skyrim, ARMA II CO and 11 other games downloaded. SSDs are awesome for loading stuff but not storing things.

i'll take that as a answer for me
i found 1 1.5 tb drive 10$ more than the one i was looking at

I have literally hundreds of decently sized games on my 500gb, with 20gb left. I'm always suprised by how many extra garbage files I have lying around I can delete, it's usually a stash of FRAPS movies in raw format somewhere that adds up to literally 100gb...

if you are willing to spend 90 bucks, for a 3rd more you can double the size

A 64GB SSD is perfect just to store your OS on. Use an HDD for anything else.

[heedicalking]

get a 600 series or wait for 700. 600 doesnt seem all that great except 690

[HerpaDerp]

lol
I bought a 500GB HDD for my rig when the prices for a 1TB were like $150 - $200
Today, I now have 50GB left from being filled with games :c
