Hey there my name is Sean and BaSkEt-CaSe is my handle in Counter-Strike. I've owned desktops before but never built my own and at 22 I figured it was time! I've owned a laptop the past few years because of the mobility needed for college, and now I'm done playing games on it forever!!! (The thing got 70fps max in CS:GO, ASUS G60VX a little outdated)
I didn't go crazy with my new build it was a budget build but I have great room for upgrades.
I'm using:
MSI 990FXA-GD80 (A pretty sick board, pretty sure the thing was MADE to OC AMD's) Also this is the V2 with updated BIOS
FX-6100 3.3 (Can't wait to start OC'ing for the first time ever)
ATI Radeon HD 5770 (Had a Geforce 260M in that damn laptop)
8 GB Patriot Viper 3 DDR3 Memory
I'm using a 7200 RPM 2TB HDD, plan on adding an SSD later.
I also just ordered a liquid cooler for the CPU, so OC'ing will be safe.

New product so I can't wait to review it and see what my temps are.
Other than CS Global Offensive I will be playing SC2, Dota2, and Skyrim on this PC, and I plan to stream Dota2 and Global Offensive through twitch.tv
I also am getting a Blu-Ray drive as I will have this computer hooked up to a 32" Widescreen as well as a standard 21" LCD monitor.
So when you see me posting now you have some background on me!
