Just put together my parts for my PC, now i can play games at high settings!!!!
YaY!
So recently I have decides I wanted to play games on my computer (because i can only play games on low settings right now, therefore it is not fun). My whole PC have very good parts (CPU: Core 2 Quad @ 2.4GHz, RAM: 4Gb, 22'' Monitor). Basically all I needed was GPU (graphics card) to replace the crappy on-board Geforce 8500 GT that came with my computer. So I picked the BFG GTS 250 OC 1024mb for my GPU. Therefore I started to look around at on-line retailers (ncix, newegg, tigerdirect, ect.) to compaire prices , but the prices seemed really high for the graphics card.
(Here comes the good part...)
While we were at Staples a couple of days ago, I saw the graphics card I was looking for (BFG GTS 250 OC 1024mb) that I couldn't find anywhere! Another Good thing is that Staples is having a back to school sale. So, in since my mom is a teacher, she get 10% off of every thing in the Store (which INCLUDES my graphics card!). So I got my graphics card for cheaper then anywhere else at Staples (who would of guessed eh) PLUS i have a $30 mail-n-re-bait, so it's CHEAPER.
The sad part about this story is I realised to use my new graphics card, i NEED a better PSU to run it (mines like 300W, i need about 550W), and I have no clue how long this order is going to take. So i just have to look at this card just imagining what it can do un till i get my PSU.
Once I get my PSU, my gaming PC is FINISHED! Say goodbye low settings!
