Post: My new affordable gaming rig!

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Okay, nothing really important I just wanted to see what you guys thought of my new rig! I'm a student, so I can't go above $1,200. I haven't ordered it yet, because I'm on vacation ATM, but it will probably be the first thing I do when I get home. I'll post pictures as soon as I can.

Click to see the specifications:

Computer Case: NZXT M59

Power Supply: OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W

Motherboard: ASUS Crosshair V Formula

Processor: AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition

Memory: Mushkin Enhanced Silverline 8GB

Graphics Card: EVGA SuperClocked GeForce GTX 560

Hard Drive #1: Seagate Barracuda XT 2TB

CD-Drive: LITE-ON Black Blu-Ray/DVD-Drive


I am also deciding to install OSx86, but I am not sure if my hardware is compatible. And if it doesn't, I don't really care, because MAC's suck monkey balls.

All of this cost me about $1,100, which I think is an affordable gaming rig, and the hardware should be able to run all of the latest games on the highest settings.

So tell me what you guys think I can improve, on a budget under $1,200!

I also got a question.

Will you be buying Call of Duty® Modern Warfare 3 when it is released, or will you wait?

Haha, yeah, Minecraft is pretty beast, but I still want to play BF:BC2 on maximum settings.

Which is perfectly valid since he would have to pay it back anyway...
