Well, I just moved into a new house, and what happened to show up in the Big Brown Truck the night before the move? Only my new PC, monitor, and speakers
!
Got it setup about a week ago, been real busy with some personal stuff going on, though (while I would like to, I don't think it's a good idea to share any info at this time, though any wishes of good luck will more than certainly be appreciated), so I haven't posted it yet.
No pictures of the system, but, it's the specs that matter, right?
Custom Alienware Area-51 7500 with:
-Intel Core 2 Extreme 3.0GHz processor
-nVIDIA 8800 GTX
-Vista Home Premium
-4GB RAM
-Killer NIC Gaming Adapter
-1TB HD space
-Creative SB X-Fi Sound Card
-6x Blu-Ray Drive
-24" Dell widescreen HD moniter,1900x1200 resolution
-Logitech Z-2300 speaker system
Now I can max out the graphics AND say goodbye to all the lag and framerate drops I'm used to (before now my only PC was a laptop, though it is pretty decent for a laptop to be perfectly fair, certainly good enough to run RO).
Only problem is that I've started playing a whole crap load of games all at the same time, and I still need to finish Mass Effect on my 360 (though that is obviously going to wait). I'm currently trying to play Bioshock, Gears of War, Crysis, and Stalker, and I can't wait to start a campaign on SH4, World in Conflict (loved the demo, even though my laptop couldn't handle it at a good framerate) ARMA (bug-filled though it may be), replay Kane & Lynch with maxed out graphics, and, since I never finished it, Vietcong and Fist Alpha. My gaming days are going to be REALLY busy for the next couple of months!
Edit: Forgot to mention that AC comes out in a few months, and as soon as I can relocate my copy of BF2 I have to give FH2 a shot!
In short: Horribly expensive computer, but TOTALLY worth it!!!
