Computer Build Challenge

Gam3Pwn3rz · Nov 21, 2013

I challenge all you computer guys out there to make up the cheapest computer you can build that can still run games on ultra at round 50 fps! I am not saying it has to be practical, just something that works. I am really excited to see what people come up with!

Assuming the power supply doesn't fail before you load a game off of the slow low capacity hard drive, you could run most games on ultra.

I name this build "Fork in Microwave".
