So I built my first PC. My old one would have been considered old in 2006 so this is a pretty big step up but I kept it as budget as I could:

500W PSU

4GB Ram (Will be adding in 4 more soon)

Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 GPU

Athlon Phenom II x4 965 3.40 ghz CPU

GA-78LMT-USB3 motherboard

200GB HDD (Will upgrade this to a 1TB drive soon too)

 

Thoughts? Cost about 310 euro total (around 400 bucks)

A TF2 item with preordersHarlockJC
Well, you can expect the TF2 hoarders to drop money on this without a second thought... "Wow, a TF2 item and a free game?"

I could name 20 other games I'd rather see ported to PC, but whatever. This was just an OK game for me.

[QUOTE="clyde46"][QUOTE="blue_hazy_basic"][QUOTE="clyde46"] I got an old game from GOG that doesn't run :(

Not even in compatibility mode?

Nope.

Have you tried changing the number of cores the game is running under? Random suggestion

[QUOTE="clyde46"][QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"][QUOTE="clyde46"] I have issues running old games.

No issues you mean? I don't usually either, but SS2 is a b!tch.

I got an old game from GOG that doesn't run :(

Which one?

If its abandonware I don't see why not, but this is an ISO site so I'd say its legality is questionable.
