Just picked up a Phenom II 545, 790FX, 4 Gb DDR2 1066, a 4850, an LG dvd burner, and a 460 watt Cooler Master PSU. All for a friend's build.

I wish I had the money to build another computer right now. After I'm done with this current website that I'm working on, I'll be buying me some leet shit.

I'm going to pull out my wallet right now and tell you what's in it.

2x 1 USD bill
1x 5 CAD bill (I'm richer in fucking Canada than in the US)
2x receipts because I'm poor and putting twix bars on my credit card
1x drivers license
1x credit card, which I should probably stop using to buy those twix bars, because I'm probably already not going to be able to pay the bill.


That's all the money I have. And you're spending $600 on software that's virtually the same as the previous version (that I'm pretty sure you already have), and you just bought a Mac. Where do you get all this money?

I paid $150 for the 4870. I think my monitor not responding though is telling me that my mobo is too old :[ I was hoping it wasn't so. Looks like I'll be upgrading that tomorrow.

Yeah. I'm just going to have to put in my old video card so I can install windows / drivers for the 4870 since my motherboard doesn't want to let me hook the monitor up to it.

What kind of monitor are you hooking the card up too. I have had trouble while connecting new cards to my Samsung HDTV before the drivers where installed. My computer would repeatedly blue screen while attempting load the XP default driver. Try a standard vga monitor before upgrading your mobo. As long as you have a PCIe x16 interface and enough juice from your PSU you should be able to use that card. Even if you're running off a v1.0 PCIe x16 interface.

last purchases were two sticks of DDR-400 and an 8400GS.

Overclocked the 8400GS, it's performing something like an 8600GT now.

Just got a power supply, an Athlon II X2, a motherboard to go with it, and some DDR2 ram, finally upgraded my older Pentium IV system in my bedroom.

BOSE Headphones

How much were they? My cousin has Sennhauser headphones he really likes, and they cost way less than Bose retails for.

Bose is typically overpriced as it gets.

If you can afford it, why not. I've got a pair of Bose earbuds that are pretty nice as far as earbuds go (got them as a gift a few years ago, wouldn't have payed for them, especially not at full price).

If you can get it for cheap, go for it, but never buy it full price.

Because I like Shure and Sennheiser.

I like my BOSE over the ear headphones. They're great for blocking out noise and peacfully listening to high quality music. One other factor I considered was that these headphones were extremely comfortable. I wear them for 4-8 hours at a time. I actually looked at Shure (which does make some fine products) and Sennheiser (which I'm not as familiar with), but neither of them stood up to the comfort\sound quality offered by the bose headphones I purchased. I purchased my BOSE over the ear head phones for $100.00 at BJ's. They have them on sale at the moment. These head phones sell for $125.00 at newegg, and mine came with a free iphone wall charger that I use to charge my droid.

I'm more of a fan of earbuds myself, the only time I use my headphones are when I'm mixing and mastering and most importantly, not outside

I only use headphones while playing games or at work listening to music while programming. Never use them on the street... I hate hate hate ear buds... they hurt my ears.

I don't like ear buds either, which is why I own a pair of Porta-Pros. not only do they sound better than most earbuds, they are more comfortable. and they're still small enough that you don't look like a douche wearing them.

Agreed, I looked at a pair in the store, but they were pretty flimsy.

I saw a few good prices on a vertex 2 but ended up getting a new motherboard and ram instead.

upgrading to 4 GB DDR3 from 2 GB DDR2 and a nice new motherboard that overclocks better than my current $30 open box board.

That's sweet. I remember my step up from 2GB. I was pretty happy with the increase in performance. Good bang for buck. everything just feels snappier.

4GB is peanuts. I have 8GB in my laptop.

you've probably also got a steady job, I'm working for a really unstable upstart business right now and that doesn't always go so well.

I've still got another two banks open so I could fit another 8 GB in there no problem. obviously 4 GB sticks are expensive but I could do it. I'll have to work a little longer than the month between upgrades I've been doing lately though.

That's not your laptop. It's owned by RPI. Buy your own machine you wimp. Here's what I've got in mine:

OS: Windows 7 64-bit
CPU: Core 2 Dou E6550 2.3Ghz 1333FSB
RAM: 4GB DDR2 800
MOBO: ECS P45T-A
VIDEO: AMD HD 6970 2GB
PSU: 650w Antec
CASE: Antec 300
NIC: Bigfoot Killer NIC M1
HD: 80GB WD Velociraptor 10K RPM (Operating System), 1TB WD Green 7.2K RPM(Data/Games/Programs/MediaServer)


Extras: Corsair H-50 liquid cooling... :P

My CPU and RAM are 4 years old. This was originally an Dell Optiplex 380 with Windows XP. Just in case you're wondering, the Killer NIC really does work. There is a significant difference while playing MMOs and large scale FPS like Battlefield. I purchased it for 50.00 from someone on Craig's List. It was defective. I called the company, and they replaced it for the cost of shipping. I think my next purchase will be the Killer Nic 2100.
