7/10 b/c it made me lolz. P.S. My sig is a face incorporated with a fractal design with some eye stuff going on

3/10, just a link meh :L

Ok, since I know that the only game is Kerbal, I can adjust the whole build. Sadly though, it\'s time for bed for me since I got school in the morning, so I will help after. EDIT: 1 gb is fine for one monitor. Even if you have the ram, you need the bus speed and gpu to utilize it.

Crap, I knew I was forgetting something > About the GPU, I put one of my GT 520s on my test bench (i5 2500k) and tried to run Kerbal on it; at 1600x900,1920x1080,1280x720 resolutions, and frame-rates were poor ( 30-20 fps). In my school, we have GT 520s in some of our computers which, when Kerbal was run at 1280x720, had major stuttering problems and crashes. If you dont get the liquid CPU cooler and different motherboard (still ASUS), you could get that SSD and be in budget.

Do you really need a SSD? Do you really need a liquid CPU cooler? Also the case that you choose only comes with one fan.

Are you a Intel fanboy too, or can you deal with a AMD cpu?

Okay, how much are you willing to spend on GPU? Whole build?

I have built a couple computers already and pretty much the only problem with this build is the graphics card. I recommend getting this card instead: Sapphire AMD Radeon HD 6870 : http://www.amazon.com/SAPPHIRE-Radeon-6870-GDDR5-Graphics/dp/B005C8RTTU/ref=sr_1_6?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1328668201&sr=1-6

I think I found my new favorite meme (well soon-to-be)

July 25! (Birthday->More computer parts )

Sparkfun is my main source for electronic stuff and Radioshack as my backup. On Sparkfun, they only have white, blue, red, green. http://www.sparkfun.com/search/results?term=lol+shield&what=products The board underneath the sheild was an Arduino Uno http://www.sparkfun.com/products/10356 The program I use to make the graphics is LoL Shield Theater, a free website-based app that lets you design the show visually and download the code. You need to also download the LoL Shield library to use it. http://falldeaf.com/lolshield/

Maybe you don\'t need a new rig, but you want a new one...

NOTE:I am currently 15 (lol) A pic of me at a Halloween Boy Scout meeting: A older pic of me with my Arduino micro-controller and LoL shield on it:
