Title: I upgraded my computer again [Win7 installed]
Post by: Cake Faice on August 25, 2010, 05:24:23 PM
If you read my old thread on the old forums about building my first, fail half complete gaming computer...I just completed the last part. I think I can now call it a gaming rig. I did the opposite on wut sanders said about saving for 4 gigs of ram now...and buying the gpu later. I GOT EET ALL TOGETHER.

If you read about how my original 500w PSU failed and had to use the case's very own 380w psu...I returned it and got the same exact thing. But this time I got 4 gigs of ram and a hella awesome ATI graphics card.

TEH NEW SETUP:

500W PSU
Ati Radeon 5770 1GB GDDR5
Phenom II x4 @ 3.0
4GB DDR2 800
Windows 7
1TB HDD

You had better creatively obtain windows 7 or you might as well not have even upgraded, since you need win 7 for dx 11 and 10.

Dont worry, if I cant get my old Compaq running with the 1tb. I'll suck up a copy of windows 7 from the tubes of the internet and put it on the HDD so I can dual boot between the 2. And right now, nothing shows up on the monitor with my old computer. So...yah.

Sanders: edited for warez, cake chill out.
