  5. Hello All, Long time lurker (videos and forum) first time poster, Mainly out of embarrassment, I suppose. Ok here it goes!! Many Many years ago I was in the thick of building gaming rigs. I want to stress the point of how long ago this was, the graphics card that I had ( and made my friends green with envy) was an S3 Savage 3D (circa 1998). I could never afford the best stuff, and in fact I specifically remember selling almost everything I owned at the time to get said graphics card. Fast forward a few years, I, Like many of you began to love gaming and gaming tech and the communities around it, but still could not afford anything of note. Then I had a great idea......Ill join the military, make shit tonnes of money and i can get the gaming rig of my dreams and I have all the time to play I could ever imaging........So in 2002,I did! The thing that nobody ever tells you, is that you will be deployed......ALOT!! long story shortened, I am now retired from the military. I have a successful military career under my belt, but for 13 years I have dreamed of building my dream rig. Now is the part where your expecting me to say, " and i did " ....sorry. My VAC Pension is just not enough to be able to do that. I can afford about 20$ a month to save up for parts, I think Ive been smart so far, Ive been able to buy a coupe things that won't be obsolete in a week, (ducky shine 3, razor mamba ( just dies:() and a 500GB SSD) I love linus and the guys/community, I watch and learn new techniques/ideas/trends, I even had planned to ask if i could meet up with him just because I am a silly fanboy (yes even at 33 y/o) but fate took me away from my beloved west coast Canada (Victoria) and sent me to Ontario now for the question: given how quickly components improve, and given my extremely limited budget ( basically one component a year) what should be my next purchase, if any? am I fighting a losing battle? I know i will never have a high end gaming PC, but should I even consider building a medium/low end rig? Thanks for your time.
