... and it's only taken FOREVER.
See if you can guess how much it cost, then look in the spoiler tag:


Now I can actually play games with you all! Yay!

That’s ludicrous (in a good way) for... what you payed for it, the processor would cost half of that.
I'd invest in a new graphics card (by that I mean an NVidia card), but this is coming from a guy who won't fork out $100 to upgrade from an Intel Duo processor.

Pretty awesome, especially considering what you paid for it. The 4890 is a pretty brutal card if I recall correctly.

I know canyourunit.com isn't exactly reliable, but the only thing I've found so far is that I don't meet the recommended specs to run Arkham City. I meet the minimums though, so

Crysis 2, Witcher 2, BF3, MW3, Witcher 2, Amalour; all beat the recommended. So I don't know what this WONT play yet.

I used to be like you, loving Nvidia. I used to.

Then when my GeForce 290 died, I decided to give ATI a chance.

I've been with them ever since. The graphics card he currently has does not need replacement or improvement.

@Yoman: Looks like a fine machine. I'd say it wont need upgrades for quite some time.

Pretty sharp. I got a new PC myself, and it's pretty damn impressive.
