whipson24s Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Can I upgrade like any used computer or should I just buy part by part till I have everything to build one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungBuck Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) Yea, you could buy used but thats wasted money IMO, even if you did sell those parts it wouldn't payoff as much as you would think. But if that is your ONLY choice for a gaming comp, get the old stuff out as fast as you can. Edited November 14, 2010 by YoungBuck Quote PM me for free Photoshop stuff SAMSQUANCH!!!!

whipson24s Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) Ok I was thinking of buying this http://cleveland.craigslist.org/sys/2011072533.html then just replacing parts with better parts as money allowed if that's possible so I at least have something to use because I'm getting sick of using my phone lol Edited November 14, 2010 by whipson24s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungBuck Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 I'm sorry but the things you listed are outdated and won't play most modern games very well, just save up some more money and you'll be golden for a sweet budget rig Quote PM me for free Photoshop stuff SAMSQUANCH!!!!

BulletInjection Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 I'm sorry but the things you listed are outdated and won't play most modern games very well, just save up some more money and you'll be golden for a sweet budget rig Most games won't utilize more than two cores anyway. I ran my E7200 at 3.8ghz for a while until I did something stupid and fried my 750i FTW. That 7200gs won't run anything really. Even CSS on medium settings will run at 30fps. If you want to build something try to shoot for a socket 1366 since everything for the next year is going to be aimed at that anyway. And by getting the newest technology you won't have to upgrade as quickly. Why build a low end computer when in another 6 months you will not be satisfied with it and end up spending more money to upgrade and be at a loss with all the stuff you already bought. and if anyone was wondering HAF 932 XFX 790i(hate it) Q9550 corsaire TX750 seagate 500gb mushkin 8500 2 x 2 custom cooling loop Quote My build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...8920&st=100 http://www.youtube.com/Bulletinjection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
