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

[suburb]

Ok thanks but that still doesn't help me with a case because I would really prefer a midtower ofer a microatx.

MicroATX and midtower are the same form factor.  How much space in the case though for a big graphics card or what not is the key player in that size.

What I mean is like a full atx motherboard and everything.

But oh well I'll just go with it anyways.

Gonna cost a bit more, mainly for the case.

Woo, got my new computer & monitor set up and working.

Now to go through the long process of re-installing practically everything, but it'll be worth it in the end.

It kinda makes me feel sad changing from the great old laptop i've had for years now to a new computer, though.

Just installed my 270x, now my computer score is right and proper.

Those scores mean nothing. For GPU all they judge is the amount of vram it has.

[brag]My 780 Ti [/brag] has the same grading as a 660 because of this. It also caps out at 7.9.

Anyone worth their salt puts some in the windows grading scale, it's completely arbitrary

So I figured after all my new upgrades I would post my computer specs.

Total:  $2138.81
Before everyone says "Why do you have so many hard drives?", it's because one is my Windows SSD (240GB), 1 1TB for Windows related stuff, OSX Primary(120GB), 1 1TB for OSX related stuff, and 3TB split in 2 1.5TB partitions for backup of both Operating Systems.

How do you all pay for this stuff

Like really, I don't have anywhere close to the amount of money to get like what Glass posted, and if I did, I may as well use that money for a new car

Well the thing is, Glass isn't poor.
