This is going to be my very first PC gaming rig. I've been wanting to switch from consoles to PC for some time now, and I'm 100% willing and ready to do so.

The goal of my gaming PC is to be a single GPU build that can max or near max games like Final Fantasy XIV, Splinter Cell Conviction, Bad Company 2, Fable III, etc. just alot of the newer games all with 39-49 FPS. I have a budget of $700.00 - $1,000.00 USD. Heres what I'm looking at

Asus 24x DVD Burner

BIOSTAR TP67B+ LGA 1155 Intel P67 6GB/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Intel Core i5-2500k Sandy Bridge CPU

TI Twin Frozr II-OC GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 1gb

Thermaltake V3 Black Edition PC Case

CORSAIR Enthusiast PSU 650W ATX 12V

COOLER MASTER Hyper 212

G.SKILL Ripjaws 8GB (2x 4GB) 240 PIN DDR3 SDRAM 1600

I already have a HDD with a copy of windows 7 ultimate 64 bit and a 24inch LCD monitor.

So what do you think? This might be good enough?

This is what you get. This is what happens when you have a Democrat lead president and senate. This digusting liberals need to be booted out,ALL OF THEM.

Forcing health care down our throats. Forcing gays down the millitary throats, etc etc etc. Things need to change.

No, It does not mean you are homophobic... But I promise alot will think that. Thats the problem with this country, too many liberals get butt-hole hurt about any little thing you do or say. If you feel less comfortable around a male doctor, request a female doctor only. I would do the same thing, no male doctor only female doctors. Again, no its not homophobic.

Hehe, out run him and play with him in circles, then hide behind a builing with something blunt, and when he comes around the corner and pops into my sight, *b a m* right in the kisser, i'd take his gun and keys and other stuff, put on his uniform and pretend to be a cop, go to the neighboor that called the cops, hold them at gun point and tie them up, put them in the police car, drive it into the water. 5 days later they are found. I flee to mexico. Meet a cartel member, work for him. Get money. Get mexican babes. Million dollars. live till old age on the beaches. Get cought finally. Jail. Prison. Release. And do it all over again.. but thats just me :P (jk jk jk jk)

Here is a real first photo of the new red 3ds japan is getting. It seems to be exclusive to japan only, :( oh well.

But still pretty sweet looking!

It will feel odd for a few years, well at least for me. That "familiar" isn't there anymore obviously, but how long it'll last depends on the individual. It was around 4 years ago when my family and I located from Houston, TX to New York City because of my dads job. I felt totally lost for months and months, trying to do my research of where are all the stores, specially stores, hot spots, etc. are at. Adjusting to new friends and faces at school. However, now, I'm used to it but it still has a slight "new" feeling still.. anyways don't worry, things will work out hopefully. But I kinda in rare instances get a little home sick, but oh well.

Yeah, we have central air. Love that cold feeling while coming from the outside into the cold air, Mmm :)

I have 2. First one was the 60GB one, I had it around 3 years 'till it got the YLOD, I guess I got extremely unlucky because I took care of it and kept it off the carpet, made sure not to play on it too long, etc. Last christmas I got my 2nd one, the slim model, doing very good so far, but even so, I make extra sure it has tons of open space and I prompt a little 2inch rectangle box underneath to allow airflow from below..yeah yeah, super paramoid me going 'outta my way, but its okay lol :P
