NEW PC!!! NEW PC!!!

I got a new computer! After my old computer died on my at the end of the year, I've been using a small Asus notebook. Keeping up with news and writing reviews and such has been quite hard since the little laptop had a small screen and with only 1 GB of RAM, can't multi-task for shit. Now I have a custom built rig, courtesy of my friend Don, and it runs like a dream. It's not a top of the line computer but it's still pretty awesome. Its specs are as follows:

  • Motherboard: Asus P8H61-M LE Series
  • Processor: Intel Core i3-2105 @ 3.10 GHz
  • Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 550 Ti
  • RAM: 8 GB
  • Power Supply: 750W
  • Cooler Master Sniper Tower Case

I know not all those specs are precise but that's what I remember. Currently, I'm enjoying playing Prince of Persia (the one released in 2008) on max settings and I've also checked out Batman: Arkham Asylum, Assassin's Creed: Director's Cut, and Bully: Scholarship Edition to see how they run. When I get the money, I buy something more current now that I can play them. My birthday's next month so maybe then.

I'll be writing more blogs now that I have a PC that can manage multiple tasks. Get ready for random spit-balling and rant-like manifestos!

I dig the case.  Those specs should keep you for a while.  Mind if I ask how much it set you back?

It cost me a little under 700.
