just got done building a so-so gaming rig. total was $400. my original intent was to buuild a linux based pc, but after trying and trying to run ubuntu and having it crash over, over, over and over again... i had to run back to my ace in the hole. windows.. i had a windows 8 cd i bought for $40.. i thought, why not, ill run it, fuck it. boom!! what a piece of crap windows 8 turned out to be. i had to download that star8 program to get it back to normal. all in all, im getting 100 fps full details in my steam games, so w00t.
here are the specs for anyone who cares-
amd 5800k 3.8G
ati 6770
Ram 4 gigs.
