Custom Gaming Rigs...
by gwoodard41 Tue Oct 30, 2012 6:36 pm
Ladies and Gentlemen, this thread is a catch all about what we use or want to use for our gaming or other computing needs. Go ahead and post what you have and/or what you would like to own if you could.
What I have...
http://us.toshiba.com/computers/laptops/satellite/e205/e205-s1980/
(Note, the nvidia graphics doesn't work on it anymore, so that's a slight pain in the neck to deal with).
What I want...
http://www.ibuypower.com/Store/Special-A
If I had a job closer to home, that kind of money, and somewhere other than my truck to live, I would soooooo get this.
It would be a certain improvement over my current slightly broken laptop. Of course I would get a top of the line racing wheel so I can actually be competitive.
