Hey guys, as part of my new job I have been asked to design an amazing gaming PC from the ground up. What I want to know is what would you put in your Ultimate Gaming Machine and why? This includes everything form motherboard to RAM and NCI. Please post your Ultimate Gaming Machine stats in this forum topic. Your input is much appreciated.

Ocz or corsair memory

most definately a corsair power supply

western digital hard drive or buy yourself an ssd (solid state drive)

There isnt anything worthwhile that uses DX11. ATI has no PHYSX, so there~

NVDA card for sure, but the new ones are just fixing to be release later this month (fermi design)

Physx is nothing to phone home about.

so we all agree on Intel's i7 quad core processor, but on what motherboard? anybody have any good or bad experiences with any of them? is ASUS okay or should I go with something else?

I see why you are always having PC problems..... You don't have a Motherboard.

hahaha nice!

As for the people knocking on ASUS boards, you can suck it. ASUS is decent. Yes EVGA is good as well, I just happened to find one at newegg that had good specs and good reviews.

Asus boards have nice features, but they have shitty quality control and aren't really the best boards around...

i own an asus board...

Oh im not saying they are the best, the absolute best IMO would be EVGA or Intel Brand. I was just saying that was a pretty nice one I found with a lot of good reviews.

    • 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.
