JinZX1 Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 Hey all, I'm new here and after a long wait, my account was validated (Thanks, Norm!) and I wanted to say hey, show my specs and see if anyone has any recommendations in regards of where to go from here. This is a barebones kit I bought from tigerdirect.com a week ago, received on June 2nd and added a new graphics card to. So if you have any suggestions, comments, or welcomes they'd be greatly appreciated. thanks and i'm stoked to start gaming/chatting it up with you all.

paulktreg Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) Welcome. If nothing else please change the power supply! Most power supplies that come with cases are low end, poor quality generics and I don't think this one is any different. A good quality, OCZ, Corsair, Thermaltake, etc., of 300W or more will still do the job but at least you will be guaranteed 300W of good quality power. Have a look at the Recommended Power Supply list. Cheers Paul Edited June 8, 2009 by paulktreg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maj0rgamer Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) welcome to occ... yes indeed, before thinking about any upgrades a good quality power supply should be the first thing to get. after that, maybe a nice third party cpu cooler such as this so you can maybe get into overclocking. have fun!

oXweebleXo Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 well if your planning on overclocking i would have to say get a better case just my 2 cents. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
