Post by trufun202 »

I HAVE THE COOLEST WIFE EVER! She bought me a new computer for Christmas.

Dell Studio XPS 8100 Desktop
Intel Core Processor i7-870 (2.93 GHz, 8MB cache)
8 Gig Ram
1.5 TB harddrive
DVD-RW
1GB GDDR5 ATI Radeon HD5770
LG E2350 23" (1920x1080) LCD Monitor

As some of you know, I was in despirate need of a new dev machine. (you could probably tell it from the crappy resolution and framerates in my YouTube videos) I just got the level editor compiling on this new puppy and the badass devving shall commence TONIGHT! :mrgreen: Can't wait!

Ohhhhhhh boy! That's one sweet-ass rig!

I went from crusty to pristine xmas last year, and the jump is incredible. Been trying to fill up the HD since. XD

I can't wait to see how that badboy helps productivity. Tell your wife great job picking out the rig!

You're a lucky guy :D I need to get a new PC sometime, I can't even play minecraft faster than 15fps. Game devving is a nightmare!

Anyway, merry Christmas!
