We ended up buying an average computer and later I swapped out the PSU and a graphics card.

Just as another example. Few years ago a board member here assembled a computer for me. We started with just the basic stuff, because I didn't have much money to spend and wasn't really interested in games. Later when I wanted some performance out of it, I just made some modifications to it, think of it as very expensive legos, later on when you need more you can buy a better part and improve the performance of your machine and be happy with it. As it stands today, the only original parts are; mobo and the hard drive But I have not had any problems playing any game I want.
Ok Well i have a friend that can Help build me one. So i guess i will do that unless i find somthing for a good price.


Thanks Tsar.
