Time to build a new rig. I am still running an intel i7-920 1st generation. I think it is about 6-7 years old.

Surprising, she still runs like a beast...but my graphics card sucks.

Any recommendations or deals out there? I figure I can re-use my power supply, case and monitors. Everything else needs to be upgraded.

I used newegg, last time, but I just have not kept up with what all the hot new stuff is. thanks!

I bookmark every god damn thread/post on mobile because I accidentally touch the star.

I've given up on keeping bookmarks because of this

You fckkers need to start thumb downing Linus videos. Then start throwing more money at the PCPer and TekSyndicate.

Why is Linus popular? He is lame, has no taste, no style, nothing he does is good and is wrong a lot of times.

PCPer

Become a PCper and TekSyndicate patron.

Edt: Linus loves current Mobo style designs and Red/Black color schemes. That is enough right there for public hangings.

Looks good. Steam needs a facelift underhood. Why is it so damn slow navigating through it?

I am subscribed to TekSyndicate. I also really like Paul's Hardware. Paul used to work for New Egg.

Everything about Linus just annoys the shite outta me. Luke is not that bad, though.

Paul seems nice. Just a little boring. Plus I remember from those Newegg videos, main reason I don't watch.

My main compliant about channels like Paul's and Linus's channels are they do not that technical. I do like Linus quick tips channel. That is actually useful for high level knowledge of random things. But as a hobby, I need more technical discussions to keep me interested these days. What I do love about TekSyndicate the most is that they speak a lot about politics and policy making around the industry.

What is awesome is that us PC gamers seemed like a dieing breed during the late 2000s. PC gaming hit a boom right around 2012-2013 during the last years for last gen consoles. Really hasn't missed a step since.

Edt: Wendell from TekSyn is also one of the sharpest minds on the YouTube tech circuit.

LSUToo is this boards version of Wendell. Highest compliment I can give brother.

The PC port is a nightmare and the pricing is a little over the top.

If you do buy, make sure it's on console because the PC release is just LOL
