well after the latest bash of games that I can't run properly..wait lemme do a list:
CoD4 - Barely runs at 800x600 everythign on low
UT3 - Don't dare try it
GOW - Har!
bioshock - lowest works :)
theres probably a never ending list but these are simply the ones that interest me. Anyways to keep this post short, my aging P4 with accompanying 6800gs isn't coping anymore with my needs. (A very respectable machine however :) ). So hey presto! i found myself going round ultramalta's and razercomputer's website for parts to buy and boy was i surprised!
It seems that since I had bought my pc things have changes a "bit" money wise.
An example: I had bought my Xclio Jr Black case for a whopping Lm12 4 years ago...It's a nice case by all means with fan at the side and front, mesh to show off the hardware and associated alien like bars of light >.>
So how come the average case price nowadays starts from Lm34 -Lm38 and rises up to Lm125 and more ? I admit that some cases yes are innovative with heatsinks at the front and other kinky gizmos that make the price worth while..However imo my case had all the stuff needed for a normal case..Made of metal with a door to cover cd drives etc, screwless mounting for optical drives, HDD bay that can slide out, space for extra fans at the back etc.. And it cost Lm12! Holy crap Oo
Seems like gamers have made the Computers peripherals market think they can get away with whatever they want :/ stand up and complain boys and girls!
Im off to look for some more cost savings..it's a budget Xmas after all!
