Over the past year I've helped three friends of mine pick out parts for a PC so they can get into PC Gaming, though I'm sure it's nothing to brag about. Who thinks they've helped the most people convert to the PC Master Race? How many have you helped?

EDIT: On second thought... I think this is the wrong subforum. I think. My bad.

1 for more PC gaming, though he is still a PS3 gamer like me.

I have tried on another, now he just thinks i'm very negative for calling 30FPS bad.

I guess technically the rest of my family as I convinced them that a HTPC will make life easier. Its also good for gaming so my sister uses it when she wants to game and we all use it to watch TV, movies, music, photos and rendering. (My PC and the HTPC are the only computers in the house that were purchased after 2004). I also convinced my dad to get to an AOC U3477pqu after using a 1200 x 900 monitor for 15 years. (He was complaining about having no real estate and was considering a multi monitor setup until I introduced him to 21 : 9). He loves it and I'm now insanely jealous about how awesome it looks. Now I'm more or less the go to person for tech in my entire family. A bit irritating but I've managed to stop a few scams and impulse purchases so all good I guess.

Two people. Both asked me to build computers for them.

 

Haven't converted anyone though

I've converted four people. Yesterday I converted my rich friend. He had a $2k budget so we went wild.

Wishing leads to ambition and ambition leads to motivation and motivation leads to me building an illegal rocket ship in my backyard.

I do not game very often, so none for gaming. For tech 10 or so.
