The time has finally come for my Bi-Half-Decadely (twice ever five years) rig overhaul (computer building).
Ive been saving since right before E3, but I think the time is finally right to build a new machine. Before anyone asks, there isn't anything crucially wrong with my current machine. It simply is showing its age in many aspects of gaming and digital design. Additionally, I would like to have two networked computers for several different reasons.
Either way, here is the setup for my new rig. Subject to change, but likely not by much. I'll cut it for those of who who aren't comp savvy, or who don't give two shits. Comments and suggestions are definately welcome, but no brand bias. Some people like ATI. Some people like Intel. I chose AMD and Nvidia for certain reasons, so thats that. Okay. End emo. Heres the layout.

In other news, Zeek and Meredith have the best cat ever. It doesnt make me sneeze, regardless of my allergy to cats. Missy and I went over their place and played with the cat for hours. Zeek and I lured the cat into a vase no less than 3 times. Rofl. Kitty in a vase. I even have camera phone pictures (taken with my spanking new LG VX8300) of the kitty sitting in the vase. In fact, Ive got several goofy cat pictures, so I think I shall post them. :D
Thats all for now. School is sick busy. Work is sick busy. I don't play video games nearly as much as I'd like, though I did get guild wars recently. I need to buy Prey when I get my new rig up and running. Oh shits. Im gonna be late for work. Time to go! Have a nice day!
