At this moment, no as the motherboard, cpu and ram is so outdated, along with the hdd.. Only thing good in it, is the GTX 970.

PS the build is 5,5 years old, apart from the GPU.

No.

 

Cheap case with no cable management possible, cheap PSU with rainbow unsleeved cables, cheap motherboard for my FX-6100 that doesn't support USB3 or SATA3, no SSD, HD7750 1GB barely keeping up with today's AAA games.

I answered no. The reason for that is I have always bought used parts from my friends ever since the in the middle of the 90s and I have never had a real powerful machine since we didn't have much money in our family so I was always a bit behind other of my friends on LAN parties. Now when I finally have some spare money each month I have built a good machine that does very well in all games I throw at it. But still I need more! When I have the money and no other hobbies to spend money on I can finally start building my dream machine. At the moment I have an FX8350, 16gb ram and and R9 280x (too lazy to name all other parts) and my plan is to upgrade it during the coming months to an i7 and a gtx 970. Even though I have always been an AMD fanboy I would like to see how it is on "the other side". Time will tell.

yes, I can run anything at high-ultra at 1080p which is fine for me, considering 3 years ago I was gaming on a PC from 2002.

I'm fine with my 2 year old rig, it does the job. When I first built my rig it was amazing.

Yes and no. My system does everything I need it to do. I don't really play GPU intensive games, so I'm pretty much set. I do need more storage space though, I've got like 4GB's of space left out of my 1TB drive. (Very large plex library...).

My system is quite the rig already, but I could still do more to it. If I ever get two 970s, then I'll be really satisfied. I'd be fine with one 970 because I only play games at 1080p.

Fairly happy with it. I always like tinkering though.

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.

Somewhat but it could be better, so no not really, I didn't spend much to get the PC I have and stole some bits from my old PC, if I had money to spend, I could have something really nice.

 

And currently on a generic PnP keyboard, booooo.

My rig is not the best but i ahve it around 4 years and did it well so far but now i will do a total new build . My GPU is GTS 450 4 years old along with Amd athlon 2 and 12 gb ram DDR3 oc both in their maximum potential but my case is from late 90s and it is a Fujitsu siemens myrica it is a living fossil but gets the job done along with a Hantol PSU . My plan is a new micro pc with Asus Z97m plus ,I5 4690k, gts 960 or 970 , EVGA supernova g2 750w , 16 gb ram Kingston hyperX, cpu cooler Scythe Ninja and i cant decide the tower regardless it will be either a Fractal Design Arc mini R2 or a fractal design node 804 any advice on which to choose ?

This is my first build and I love it. I spent months planning as I saved up money and built a wonderful pc that maxed out 95% of my games for around $1000. I wasn't happy with the case I had originally chosen(I decided it was a little to bold for my taste), so I moved my whole system to a nicer and more sleek case and I couldn't be happier.

I would be a lot happier if my 5960x would reach 5ghz stable, and I'd love to have more than one Hydrocopper 980 on the way.

That being said, I absolutely love my system.
