how much could I flog an i5 760, 8Gb ddr3 pc3-12800 ram, ati hd6870 yada-yada deal for? with case/psu/custom heatsink, too, if need be.
I have a very similar setup. You could probably get at least $400.
If that goes for $400, my machine is gonna be worth shit
Bout tree fiddy.
Where are you looking to sell it? Classifieds, eBay?

gaming aside, sounds like a decent high powered HD porn machine.
you can watch porn on a retina MBP in glorious hi-def. in fact i intend to. as soon as i sell this massive waste of depreciating shit.
i honestly feel sorry for people who still spend lots of money on gaming rigs nowadays. all the games worth playing are either indie/mods or games that are 5 years old/made on 5 year old technology.
gg games industry.

porn looks the same on the retina mbp as it does anywhere else
Diablo 3 is about to get a whole lot better. Borderlands 2 is aight. Darksiders 2 is pretty good. Torchlight 2 is disappointing.

i guess you disagree with those games being worth playing? Fair enough. I don't really care to hear why but go ahead.
nooooooooooooooooooooooo
I think it'll be more worth it for everybody to re-invest in a good gaming computer once the new consoles come out and then the game design bottleneck will be lifted for a while. That's probably just common sense thoughaynrandroolz wrote:

the only game i have installed is minecraft, yet i've got a 2gb vidcard, 16gb ram, core i7 3820 @3.6 ghzaynrandroolz wrote:

is this overkill for a 16 bit java game?
Can't wait to hear about this one.KEN-JENNINGS wrote:

This is being said with every patch, but I quit playing at 'Patch 1.0.4: The Gamebreaker'
I really hope it will, but looking at the games released right now I'm afraid it will only help the graphical bottleneck. The gameplay of many games released in the last 2-3 years has been dreadful and a new gen of consoles won't change that, it might even make it worse._j5689_ wrote:

The gaming industry has become such a massive entertainment industry that has no small niche groups to cater to the people that actually want a quality game, they just pump out turd after turd.
It has grown to fast in to short a time and hopefully it will burst soon.
Load the bigger maps and add HD textures.13urnzz wrote:

the future of gaming is a vision of a nooblet's boot, stamping on the pros face, forever.
pc gaming will never return to the state-of-play that it enjoyed even 5 years ago, when it still fostered semi-niche, semi-hobbyist communities.
it's just gonna get a lot shitter from here on out. sell your pc, buy a hotrod, go pick up some hot chixxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
new patch makes leveling lower level characters easier, and grinding for items a bit less monotonous. The drops will get better and happen more frequently, depending on the monster level you select. What was game breaking about Patch 1.04? We can take this to the diablo thread...Kampframmer wrote:

Seriously though spending 500-1000 more on a huge gaming rig as opposed to a cheaper system that can run it fine because you want everything on 100% ultra seems unreasonable.
Also Diablo 3 is dead.

no. both are shit. neither have a hardcore community worth a fart.
also roc, you do realise that your posts in that faggot 4chan format are actually even harder to understand than if you'd just typed it out, right?
this rig wasn't even a 'gaming pc'. it was a mid-range pc back when i built it, 2 years ago. just it's rotting. it gets used for nothing. it's a glorified media centre with expensive gaming peripherals attached to it. and it's not even portable. therefore i am flogging it.
give you £5
probably all you have
