The HDD!
Blue-Ray Reader / DVD Writer
Why didn’t I just get a normal DVD writer and leave the Blue-Ray to the home theatre system? BECAUSE IT HAS A MIRROR! Yes, that is the only reason I brought this drive, It looked pretty and thought it would suit for my new PC. Don’t judge me!
The Drive!
And I just noticed my fingerprints on the mirror >:( Ruined the photo!

The GPU!
Finally got around to updating this with, so figured I’ll make a post for the Graphics Card for my PC Build.
So here it is! My new nVidia GTX 560 Ti. This card is currently being used in my old PC, replacing my ATI HD 4870, and what an increase in performance it gives! So once my new PC is all set up, and this card is installed, I should expect an even bigger boost in performance since I’ll be using a much faster CPU and alot more RAM.

Raging Nerds
I don’t get why people get so pissed off over a game, I mean I understand that we all play them to have fun and what not, but there are some people who just take it a little to far.
I’ve played many games, but there always seems to be at least one person who tends to make it their duty to call out everyone else on the team, bad mouthing them because they either die to much, or get everyone else killed.
Why cant people just play the game, and that be it. Bad mouthing others doesn’t make you any more of a bigger person, in fact the only thing it does is make you even more of a child, not only do the rest of the team make it their duty to try and piss you off more, but in turn it provides everyone else with something to laugh at.
So that being said, if your out to bad mouth other players because you think they suck, all your doing is giving them something to laugh at, you!
The Look!
Today, the case for my new PC arrived!
Yes, I know your jealous, so don’t even bother spamming my inbox, however I do enjoy reading your emails.
