Anfanee Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) JESUS thats expensive... that proves my point 100% tbh. Edit: you should NEVER pay over $1800 for a gaming computer. Ever.

Anfanee Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Dude speaking of haha, I had a very expensive gaming laptop a few years ago. My house got broken into and it was stolen.

*LOACH* Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Should paint it pink with rainbows and unicorns on it. Should deter any would be thieves from walking down the street with it.

Cowboy1600 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 You guys realise the GPU in that system is about $1300 worth? It's actually a pretty bloody good price, although I would never spend that much myself. As Anthony alluded to, law of diminishing returns suggests that spending more than around $1500-$1800 on a PC is pretty much futile.

Madaz Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 I did a staticice search on the gpu, and found msy had them for $1100 I already knew not to laugh at a system with out trying to know a little about it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/258615-pc-deals/page/5/#findComment-6646628 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anfanee Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Its just overkill though. Realistically a 2.4ghz processor 8gb of ram and a 1.4GB graphics card will play EVERYTHING on ultra. Only just at 60FPS but it will do it. These days you can build a pc like that for like $800-$1000. In saying that the 1.4GB cards are getting out dated. Mine is getting old and im going to overclock it soon. But for like $200 for a 2GB card its an easy fix.

R31Nismoid Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 You can't just say a specific amount of memory on a card is enough. You don't know how many monitors, what resolution and other factors that dictate what card is required. Anyway this is all getting off topic - chat in the chat thread.
