I finally managed to go and buy a custom built computer. Was sposed to be able to pick it up today but the wharehouse hasn't gotten my case yet so now i hasta wait till monday, it not a super rig er anything but it's an updateable one that will play all of my steam games with their settings maxed so i'm happy with it. Especially since the only other games i'm lible o get any time soon is either EVE or Black Prophecy.

This is a tottally random post i know but I felt like sharing. I will post up pics once i pick it up, along with the full specs cuz i'm not sure the exact model on the motherboard or cpu;

what i do know is that the cpu is an i5, the motherboards by ASUS with 8 gbs of ram by either patriot or leviathan, and an NVIDIA 550GTS by EVGA with a 500W power supply.

That PSU is kinda scary low on power. Hopefully it won't be an issue.

And yeah Yama, those are a great start. I made a list on newegg of my update parts for when I get my bonus check in November. Here it is.

That is all going in my Cooler Master HAF-X case, and I already have a GTX 590, but I may try and sell it and get two GTX 580's after reading Dillon's post about video cards.

Haha, how often do you have to update your list? I want to make a list but hardware gets better and cheaper so quick...

I have made ummm... 3 different posts about new computer builds, and have yet to follow through on them.

I made that list on the 7th, and so far it hasn't changed. By November when I get my bonus check it may be different as prices on SSD drives drop closer to the holidays I might opt for larger ones. I have between now and then to decide if I want to go for swapping video cards too.

Just get Verizon Fios if you can.. I have verizon DSL but Verizon has been pretty good to us, so they are a good internet provider.

True .. I'm stuck with Verizon DSL until my apartment complex gets a contract for Verizon FIOS it sucks .. but I refuse to go to the evil of Comcast ...

Odd news,

HP is involved with Comcast now .. hopefully we can unfuck them.

I hate HP with a passion, TBH.

    • jelly3384's application for Enlistment Form Questions Name you wish to use and Age: (Our unit uses realistic names, this does not have to be your real name) Pigeon, 16 Platform Type Epic Games Store Steam ID (Use 17 Digit SteamID 64 / PC Game Pass Account Username): Pigeon_theft   Do you have a microphone? Yes   Which game title are you applying for? Hell Let Loose   If you've selected Hell Let Loose, do you understand that this game is currently not cross platform capable and only PC players currently may apply? ( Steam or PC Game Pass) Yes   Why do you wish to join the 1st Marine Raiders? I've played BFV and milsimed in it, and it was a lot more fun when I milsimed. and I enjoy playing HLL, so I think it is going to be more fun when I join.   Did any of our current members play a part in you enlisting? If so, who? If none, how did you learn about us: I found you guys from a website called disboard when looking for HLL milsim groups to join.   This unit offers more than just a place to play games with each other, do you have any online skills you think would be useful? no   Do you have any Leadership experience that you think will be helpful? I'm not sure if it will be helpfull,but I used to be in BFV milsim groups and in my last one I got to [E-7] out of [E-1] to [O-8], so I was a NCO and I helped the officers with whatever they needed doing, weather it was assisting with training, settling disputes or helping them decide what was appropriate disciplinary action. And when we were in combat I was usually assigned to lead my own squad.   Have you ever been in a realism unit before, and if so, which unit was it? yes. I was in quite a few BFV milsim groups, although I was only in one at any given time. unfortunately, I have left the discord servers and I do not remember the names of them. if you would like, I could probably give a reference to someone who was an officer in most of the groups I was in.   By posting this Enlistment form, I acknowledge the instructions completely, declare that I am 16 years old or older, and agree that I have and will follow server and unit rules maturely and respectfully or face immediate rejection.
