    I'd rather have too much than too little.

    I only say 2TB because the difference in price between 1TB and 2TB is stupidly low.

    Oh shit.

    I might cry.

    oh well. If it is GPU heavy then rejoice, drivers should help.

    Aww it's okay. sorry to hear about your dad. I'm just now trying to get into contact with mine (after not seeing him in 15 years . . . considering i'm 16, that's a long time). Hope YOU feel better soon because depression is BLEH.

    GPU capped at 70-80 fps depending on the location, but I don't think I've seen it below 40 in bigger battles.
    Everything at high, except shadows. No AO or motion blur.

    I'm keeping my 500gig for a while. My next upgrade will be a SSD I think...

    But I don't really save tooo much. Most of my music is streamed. Games don't take up much either.

    Generally OK afaik, if you can find similar things on sale though it can mix things up.
    Not the absolute best of the best even on the unicorn, but for each general price thing for non-sale prices I think they're alright...
    Just make sure you don't get the cheapest items you can find, better to get something a bit more expensive than the cheapest PoS available (my ssd and mobo ;__
    SSD died after a few months, mobo is a pain in the ass, can't tweak cpu voltage...

    I don't save music or videos to my hard drive, but I'd love to be able to have all of my Steam games installed at once.

    Fuck motion blur.
    In everything ever.
    AO looks too pretty, I prefer it on and losing 3ish fps ;__;
    570 is about 10% better than the 560ti I think so sounds around the right zone...

    50-60 generally, low 40's in big fights.

    Weak heart might be wrong. Half his heart flat out doesn't work or something like that. The working part is strong >.> idk how that works. As for the depression... feh. I've been on and off for years now.

    Oh shit son. What temps you get on that?

    I was thinking of going with the corsair WC closed loop setups, but honestly my case is pretty dinky. I don't even know if it will be able to hold my mobo.

    Yeah. Alright. I know one thing, if I ever get a thousand dollars (or more) to spare for a PC, I would come here and to some other tech forum for some help on what the fuck I should buy :P

    I just hope they'll add in GPU physics again soon. There are reports of it giving a fps boost while looking prettier as well

    yeah. of course I would look at sales. I would be silly not to. I have no idea how to build a computer though, so I would probably need to take it somewhere.
