[MEGATHREAD] Personal Computer - Updated builds thanks to Logical Increments

[Littledude]

How small is your case? An HD 7970 isn't that huge.

i have a 5850 currently which is about 8.5 inches long and there's only a little less than an inch of space left and the 7970 im looking at is about 11 inches long

my current case isn't like a standard size, I bought this computer from ibuypower a few years ago and i'm pretty sure the case wasn't really built with future upgrades and stuff in mind

@littledude if you're planning on getting a 7970, you should definitely wait until the new AMD cards release, supposedly in October. The new cards will be better, clearly, but even if you dont buy a newer card the prices for the older cards will drop.

i probably will wait a while to do this anyway, but I don't think I'd buy the newest gen card. i'm not really on a budget for this since I have the money to play with right now, but I still need to justify buying expensive stuff without really needing it. My current graphics card is fine for playing the games I want to play, the only problem with it is a screw from somewhere in the card fell out a while ago and now something is leaning on the fan as it spins, causing the card to get pretty hot and make an annoying noise sometimes.

That is actually a really solid, nice, prebuilt. Really by estimating building that specific computer by yourself would only save you around a couple hundred dollars. Go for it if you have the money.

I think a lot of people around here have used the Corsair HX Series, this one has a good rating.

It's probably malware because only two other people in the entire internet have ever reported this error before. I would try looking for a crash log somewhere.
