Hey everyone,
This morning I woke up and grabbed a coffee and went to use my computer like normal. The damn thing though, seriously, was sounding like it was dying and gasping for breath.
I ignored it of course, and started up a game. I was kicking the shit out of some fools when suddenly it just fucking shuts off. lol. I turn it back on and blue screen of death errors following by other crashes.
Anyways, brought it up to kitchen to open it up. Took my shop vac and gave it a 5HP blowjob. So much dust came out - and went all over my kitchen. lol
I think this beast is on it's last legs. I need a new rig. I want to build this new one myself, and haven't done that before. I've replaced everything inside computers etc, but never built one myself.
Current PC Specs
2 ATI Radeon 6850's Crossfired - 3 monitors (3 1920 x 1080 screens or 1 5760 x 1080 screen) Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 - 6GB DDR2 Ram, 600 GB Solid State HD, (Asus Motherboard??)
What I need in new PC
I need a graphics card that can support 3 monitors, if there is such a single card, or two good ones. I need a powerful CPU / motherboard also.
The computer needs to be able to play all games on maximum settings while recording video or live streaming at 1920 x 1080p 60FPS minimum as well. (I've been making dumb ass YouTube video game videos lately)
Probably need another good Solid State HD as well.
Also, what type of RAM should I be looking at?
Power Supply?
Also any sort of info on what kind of tower and cooling I should use would be helpful.
Thanks folks
