| Arseen:
I too am willing to give little donation for this good cause. |

I got a quote for how much it would take to fix my motherboard. Since the computer is 4+ years old and is discontinued it would actually cost me aroud $400 just to get it up and running again. If I'm going to spend that much money I may as well replace it. I appreciate the donation offers by I don't know if I feel quite comfortable accepting handouts. Well my Birthday is on Friday and if you wanted to give me anything for that ... ;) jk I think I may actually have enough to get another laptop in a few weeks but I dot have quite enough to include the shipping and a new enclosure for my old drive. If I were to outright get the computer, shipping and the enclosure I'd be down to my last $100 to last me for everything for two weeks (basically only driving to work and eating shitty food). I may have to wait a while longer ... we'll see what happens. |

I have (2) 2TB's and (1) 500 GB, they are not that expensive anymore =\ |

How to build a $480 gaming PC to take on Battlefield 3 I ran into this article trying to find a way to make a cheap gaming PC (though not for Battlefield 3).This might help you with the costs, and give you a better machine in the process. |

Well I could get an enclosure for about $15 and just use the old harddrive that I already have currently sitting in my dead computer. The one I have in there is 300gb so I may as well. --- Quote from: z0mbiew0lf on July 31, 2011, 07:06:05 PM ---How to build a $480 gaming PC to take on Battlefield 3 I ran into this article trying to find a way to make a cheap gaming PC (though not for Battlefield 3).This might help you with the costs, and give you a better machine in the process. --- End quote --- (could one of the admins combine this with my other post above, it's very difficult to quote more that one thing on my phone. Thanks) I don't want a desktop pc though. I need a laptop as most of the time I make covers I'm on the run somewhere. I also don't want to be forced to be antisocial locked in my room all the time. My gf, roomate and her bf watch tv and do stuff on our computers all in the living room when we have days off. It may sound a little wired but I really enjoy that time. I already have a computer picked out, I just need to wait for the funds. |
