  1. Actually i agree about 4gb GPU being too much, im pretty sure my 1 year old gaming rigg has 2gb gpu and i dont think its time for a upgrade yet and no im not the one who's in charge of paying for the laptop, i just took upon me to ensure he buys a pc based on specs and needs not marketting and hype ... and i also want a bit of research done so that i can pick a good price for a good machine Thanks Erosannin, i live in NDG ... hello ^-^; , i did order most of my computer parts from NCIX or newegg (or maybe tiger direct? ... i forgot) and i even managed to forget to send my mail in rebates -.-; websspot i'll have to review those links with him, thanks for doing some of the thinking for me ... i take time to process stuff xD That samsung laptop looks gorgeous (i have a crush on samsung lately for some reason), its a shame i live in canada otherwise id almost consider buying it for myself
  2. I've shown the laptop that TehStranger showed me to my boyfriend, i tought it seemed liked it was really reasonably priced and seems to have just enough of what anyone would need or would expect from a laptop ... my boyfriend said "Oh no 2gb of gfx isnt enough, i want 4gb, i want this pc to last..." (im not sure what he expects to get with 1000$ on a laptop...) I think he would be willing to buy from any places that can ship in Qu
  3. Oooh, that does look interestin, thanks bud i'll have to look more into it but i sure like the price My boyfriend is being irrational right now imma have to consult him some other time lol
  4. Hey guys, My baby needs a Laptop for Uni work and also light gaming, it would be mostly used for office and adobe softwares and games like D3, Sc2 Dota 2... maybe some not so recent shooters as well (UT3?) I would love it if someone could help me find him something thats on the sweet spot of affordable technology with somewhat decent performances, i am aware that laptops are more expensive than Pc (... its why i have yet to own one ) I did the quickest research ever to see whats up and i found those two which are most likely too expensive for him http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-M17x-r4/pd.aspx http://www.staples.ca/en/ASUS-173-Laptop-24GHz-Intel-i7-3630QM-16GB-RAM-1TB-HDD-G75VW/product_100011_2-CA_1_20001?cid=CSE:SBD:SHPBT:ACQ I think a nice price to aim for would be up to 1200$ do you guys know of any decent laptop / gpu or sale going on that i should look at? i feel a bit cheap comming back calling for help as soon as i need another awesome Pc... i got help from user here over a year ago and i love my rigg Thanks guize Thanks a lot for your help
  5. makes sense to me, what do you guys suggest as a small upgrade for a decent price ... anything that wont bottleneck too much (unless its still a better choice) i think 50$ or 60$ would be a decent price to aim for
  6. League of legends, battlefield heroes, world of warcraft (mostly old stuff) basically its to get the games he can currently run to run a little better, resolution i 1024 would be fine i wonder if gpu appart theres something that would stop him from playing ut3 engine games
  7. Hey guys, a friend of mine has the Pc described at the url below its about 4 years old ... i was wondering if you think it would be worth it to put about 60$ on a graphic card for it http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/fr/ho/WF06b/12131830-12132278-78308261-78308261-78308261-81152370-81572631.html?dnr=1 (now that i come to think of it you guys prolly dont have this kinda questions usually ... sorry) what do you guys think? Thanks
  8. once again thanks for the help guys, its very appreciated ... if i have other questions i'll make sure to ask ... possibly in the proper forum section lol should i go for this instead of what i posted up here? im wondering if those parts are about equivalent or quite bad ><;;
  9. okay, ... i dont know anything about ram ... will this ram actually work if i put it in oc or not? i dont mind if it doesnt work at the said speed otherwise imma have to order another one ... im not planning to OC for now >.<;;
  10. Thank you and thanks for the reply ... it was quick too im not sure what that means ... whats a "bd" ... i guess it means board? >.<;; newegg says my mobo supports DDR3 800/1066/1333/1600/1800*/2133* (OC) and the ram specs are 1866 MHz is there a problem? :S on a side note im really worried about the whole static / ground thing... any tutorials i could read? you think an apartment covered with cat hair is bad for building a pc? xD
  11. O Hai guize ^-^ My friend "built" this for me (on "paper" ) and then i ended up buying it in a rush because i thought the sale on the mobo and cpu combo was good (im clueless ) .... was supposed to wait for black friday >.<;; just wondering if it all fits together ... would suck to end up with a mobo bigger than my tower and whatnot can the psu handle my components? pardon the noobness, i WILL read replies though thanks for your time >_<;; <3 CPU : AMD Bulldozer FX-8120 8 Core Processor 3.1GHZ Socket AM3+ 125W Retail Box MOBO : MSI 990FXA-GD80 ATX AM3+ 990FX DDR3 4PCI-E16 2PCI-E1 1PCI SLI CrossFire SATA3 USB3.0 Motherboard (got those two in a bundle here ) GPU : Visiontek Radeon HD 6970 2GB DDR5 2x DVI 2XMINIDP HDMI PCI-E DIRECTX11 Video Card RAM : Kingston KHX1866C9D3K2/8G 8GB Kit 2X4GB 1866MHZ 240PIN DDR3 Non ECC CL9 1.65V Gold PSU : Powercolor Gaming 600W Powersupply ATX 12V 80PLUS CrossFire SLI 120MM Fan Powersupply Tower : Zalman Z9 Plus ATX Mid Tower Case Black 3X5.25 1X3.5 5X3.5INT No PS W/ Fan Controller & Temp Display EDIT : if i read my old pc specs from manufacturer's website it describes my current harddrive as : 250 GB 7200 RPM Serial ATA II hard drive with 8 MB cache) and relying on newegg the mobo im ordering supports : SATA 6Gb/s 6 x SATA 6Gb/s SATA RAID 0/1/5/10 ... is it fair to assume my old HDD will work on my new machine? id rather not buy an HDD with current prices being inflated. if the answer is no is there some kind of adapter i can get me for it? i wonder if the OEM windows installed on my gateway pc will work when i switch the HDD i have yet to order windows 7 home 64bit OEM from tigerdirect or something
