Mindtwistah Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 Clavus, just outta interest, how much did it cost ya to build the monster? I'm running on a laptop right now, it cost me 1k$ but it still runs crap on games like L4D and Gmod.. about 10-20 fps >.<I'm guessing building my own stationary computer will be way better, and maybe even cheaper ;D If it's under 2k, I might consider taking a summer-job just to afford it, lol Quote
Deluvas Posted January 12, 2009 Posted January 12, 2009 you can build a monster within 1000$. I made a pc configuration (with ATX and DVD stuff too) , for like 800$. Quote

But I scored the screen and Windows version for free, and most parts were second hand Quote
