I'm in love with my new computer. When my old computer carked itself and I had $2000 saved up, my brother said "Hey, go nuts."

So I did.

I went to an online computer store that sold computer parts at warehouse prices and well, everything was at a pretty good price. My brother and I put together a really nice computer for myself. In total it cost me $1700

Processor: i7 950 Quad core.
RAM: 8GB
Speed: 3.08GHz
Graphics: 4GB with 1GB dedicated

I'm quite proud of my purchase, my brother and I spend a couple of hours at his house building it and the end result; my computer is now better than his. I can play WoW with everything on ultra settings and I still have 200 frame rate. Not to mention my Sims 3 game is so detailed and flawless.

Yea, bragging moment done I just love it so much.

What kind of computers do you guys have?

@Se7en - That's pretty good for a 2 year old computer. Mine is about a month old now, but it's almost impossible to have the latest computer hardware as there's always something new coming out from somewhere. My old computer was going on almost 6 years and it was the 'latest' in hardware back in its day.

@Malcom - There's nothing wrong with that. I have a basic understanding of computers like how to build them and what not, I remember I kept asking my brother what "SLI" meant and i was handing him all the SLI parts for the motherboard. He's like 'no, I don't need those'. My RAM is also DDR3, forgot to mention that.

If you'd like to know where I got the parts from, it's an Aussie site so it probably wont be any good to some of you. Australia Computer Hardware & Software Online Store
