Hiya, I was directed towards these forums with a recommendation from a friend. My PC is PAINFULLY outdated, and I'm heading towards some hardware failure (RAM is bad in GPU causing artifacts, CD-Drive no longer functions correctly, etc.). I've set a budget at $800 before rebates. I'm a student, so I am not made of money. I think that is a reasonable amount to invest as I'd like this rig to last at least 5 years. I'm not a hardcore PC gamer, so I feel this is reasonable. Anyways, onto the show:
