if those Alienware Area-51 PCs are the highest-grade model, then thats 10,000 dollars right there, coupled with how his laptops and perhiphals are razer, thats probably another 2,500 right there

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "case type" but
it looks like a Micro ATX motherboard with the AM3+ socket

mainly asking if low profile or not

[shitlord]

sooo... what should i upgrade?

[pch]

your cpu seems fine to leave as is for now, and 8gb of ram is still acceptable so yeah i'd definitely say just a graphics card upgrade is ok here.

personally i havent really kept up with any of the latest cards so youll have to wait for someone else to give a reasonable suggestion

but honestly i dont see anything wrong with buying a card thats 1 or 2 years outdated and using that. my 670 i got in 2012 is still going strong

can't really make any decision unless you know your PSU wattage (preferably specific model) and whether or not it has any PCI-E power connectors, and whether your case is low profile or not

Larger hard drive
Going to buy

And replace the fan with


Oh boy. I wonder how silent my PC is than.
Then an SSD instead of an HDD and you wont even hear its there

ive used it on many tiny comps because its so very short and super quiet.
plus its already got a noctua fan so i dont have to upgrade it.

[Georges]

Bisjac I'm curious as to just how many computer's you've built cause you say stuff like

ive used it on many tiny comps

That makes it sound like your building a new computer every other week or something idk

[Bisjac]

i do build about 3 comps a week. i sell em online as prebuilt gamers.

but i make a bunch of tiny comps to. anything without a video card can be crammed into ridiculously small cases.

[Georges]

Interesting. How much do you make off of that, cause that actually sounds like a fun side job.

[Bisjac]

its only profit like 400 bucks a week lol.
i suppose im waiting for it to pick up and just gotta deal with the nothing income.
im competing against part by part total prices, and other prebuild sellers who buy parts in super bulk.
so i gotta keep upcharges very very small.

[Georges]

400 a week is more than I make in a week lol
