Check out my edit.

You should upgrade that power supply soon. It's not good at all

My new job has been consuming my life. I have the itch for a new build...or at least a GPU upgrade and water loop.

Thanks, I will

Is there some sort of requirement for picking a power supply with my current parts or is it just picking any one I want and plugging cord A to hole B?

His reasoning was that he wanted a nice laptop he could just sit in the living room with. I was amazed when I asked for a price and he said $400. I was expecting a lot more than that considreing it also came with a nice 23".

Sorry for the huge ones. Gotta post em from my phone



Picture of it in the office right now. Only downside is it doesn't have a wifi card so I to connect with a cord. I'll get that fixed tomorrow and move it upstairs to my room



Pic the guy sent me of him running Dirt 3. I got the monitor in the middle



Terrible picture of the inside. The guy was talking about it and I didn't want to interrupt so I tried to get a sneak picture. Guys hand got in the way though.

Awesome! Run some games and tell us how it does.

You will be able to play every game on high without a problem, but when you jump to ultra, your processor will probably hold you back. You still should be able to run 20-30fps on ultra and 45+ on high

Wow. 45 plus alone blows my mind. I'll live not running on Ultra, I was playing most of my games at low on 25 FPS

I'm putting Primal Carnage on a USB and moving it over to this computer. Also gonna get Planetside 2 downloaded hopefully tomorrow. I loved that game on my old computer but I had to play it on low and when big battles happened it became unplayable.

Played Primal Carnage and it was fun. My old PC had a lot of hiccups running it but this one ran it fantastically. Putting Just Cause 2 on here now.

Edit: JC2 was even better. All the explosions were great at a high framerate

Ah well that's all I got. I have little experience with Nvidia cards, so I'm not much help

We might be able to adjust some settings in nVidia control panel.

I will have time to do research on the subject later this week.
