Nope. Need to upgrade my CPU and CPU cooler then add another 970 and get a 1440p IPS or Swift. :D

I'm never content. It seems that every time I build a PC I get the urge to build another. This time around instead of building a new rig I bought a surface pro 3, to replace my laptop that I had to give back to my old job. Thought spending the money on that would feed the beast, but no. I have been looking at Cyber Monday deals all day...

I'm pretty good haha, I'm selling my two 7950s and buying a GTX 970. But I only did that as a favor to my girlfriend's (ex now :( ) two brothers

Locked i5 and R9 270X, eh.

I should've either gotten a Pentium and overclocked it and saved money or just... 

I dunno. The Prodigy is OK but I want a better case.

2600K clocked to 5GHz, an SSD, liquid cooling, a 7970 and a Define R4. I had better be satisfied with my build. Basically everything I wanted in a PC.

My system is great but I feel like it could be so much better... So no I'm not satisfied. Basically I will need to start from scratch in order for me to build something I'll be happy with. Since my desktop was build back in the days when I wasn't very tech competent and therefore I made some poor choices. I'm quite happy with everything I have added to it since but the case and cpu aren't as awesome as they could have been.

Not happy. Currently running on a Dell Dimension 4600i with a pentium 4 2.8 ghz. Should have easily 1000 to spend on a build but parents have yet to come through with my babysitting money...

I'm mostly happy with my pc build. I think I've just come to accept that there are constantly new components coming out that will be better so I just built within my budget and for my purposes. Everything that is going to be done now is to improve the appearance of the system and both my GTX 760s run fairly well with most games.

No because while my i3 is a good CPU I would really like a i7 along with a 970 or 290 and a higher wattage PSU for editing and gaming with everything maxed out

Need a SSD

8320 sucks at Minecraft, only ~50-80 fps in heavy servers @ max settings (@18 chunks)

Unless I install optifine

Otherwise happy

i will probably never be fully satisfied with my build, i can always improve it in some way. But that's good, one got to have something to dream about  :rolleyes:

I'm satisfied with my current build in the sense that I can play games at 1080p, 60FPS which I believe to be the minimum for getting the 'PC experience'. This build was my first steps into the PC world and I will never look back although since it was my first build it's not particularly powerful, I plan on building a monster of a system in the next 3-6 months, depending on how much I get put on at work(it's a part time job so it varies a bit). Overall though I can play games and enjoy the benefits of PC gaming so I'm satisfied but I'm looking forward to having a monster in the future.

No, should have stuck with my silverstone SG09 rather than buying an enthoo pro as it had better airflow turns out I've brought an hyper 212 killer and now I don't want to water cool :/

Mine is good, but with an i3 and a pretty small hard drive, I'd like to make some upgrades.

Also, I depserately need a real case. I stuffed everything inside an old HP one, and my H100i's radiator has to sit outside of it, plus there's not a chance that the side panel will ever go back on with my current setup :(.

Once it's finished I will be satisfied, but until then I won't be happy.

Well technically not a build but my only computer atm is a cheap laptop and when I use it I kick myself for buying it because well the build quality is ehh not so good I mean I don't hate Samsung for having a cheaply built computer that otherwise runs pretty smooth in daily task. 

However, I'm planning on doing an X99 content creation build either late summer 2015 or early 2016. (Though it's only going to have the 6 core i7.)

I always find something wrong with it once it's done. 

Current build however is annoying me again for the lack of GPU. Might go back to active cooling and a GPU.
