The spectrum always seems to shift back to the left. What a terrible stroke of bad luck, and things were just starting to go right.

Plus some old 160 GB hard drive I salvaged from my old computer. The Antec 900 may be a ricer case but I got it more for the good things I read about the airflow than the blue LEDs on the fans. Newegg is definitely the best place to buy computer parts, just about everything was discounted. I don't even need 8GB of RAM for anything but I figured I might as well buy some because it was only an extra $25. So far it's run everything I've thrown at it at 45-60 FPS. Crysis on all the highest settings and resolution drops down at times but usually doesn't go below 30. I bought the controller almost specifically for Devil May Cry 4 because it's fucking unplayable without one and I got an Amazon $30 gift card for Christmas. It now has exactly $.01 on it.

I'll take pictures of it once I find my camera so you can see that I'm too much of a lazy slob to actually tie down any of the wires inside.

whats the total cost?

Didn't bother to keep track. I think it went over a thousand, even though the initial plan placed it at something like $720. That didn't include monitor or hard drives though.

Three months and no picture. You're a fucking liar.
