The Upgrade

By Rasgueado 3 Comments

Well... after 5 years, I've finally gone and updated my computer system from the ground up. My system was pretty old... though it still ran a lot of games pretty well. Certain aspects of my rig however still surprised many people... the most of which was the fact I was still running a CRT monitor. 


I am now running a brand new core i7 system with a Geforce GTX 275 and a brand new LCD monitor that has a native resolution of 1080p. Only now do I notice that before I was running F.E.A.R. 2 at 20 frames per second. Only now am I being blown away by the total presentation that Crysis/Warhead has to offer (and let me tell you... Crysis at 1080p is pretty impressive nearly 2 years since release).

It feels good to come home.

How much of your old system were you able to keep? I'm consisdering updating my PC but like you it's around 4 or 5 years old and I think it only usefuls parts are the hard drive and the DVD drive.

Sounds good. I recently got my first big PC rig and let me tell you, its great. I too was blown away by Crysis. I bought the Max Ed. for 5 dollars, so I was blown away by that too :D.
