I have 406.98 for the rest of the month to use for my computer. My birthday is on the 22nd of this month and i have a feeling my aunt is gonna give me money or buy me something online i have no clue but the point of this thread is i want a suggestion what i should upgrade to?

1. I want a new case maybe. I would love to have an antec 902 or 1200 but i can't decide between it lol.

2. New motherboard?

3. new processor?

4. new hard drive?

5. new keyboard and speakers?

6. new video card or get another GTS 250 but need a new cpu or it'll bottleneck probably since i have a E2180 for a year and it' been great and overclocked at 3ghz lol.

7. new monitor? It's still new just 22 inch,kinda wann go bigger res cuz i'm curious what Crysis looks like with higher res. Probably no difference but fps drop i'm sure.

8. Forget all the upgrades and get another skateboard for backups? lol

9. AC Ryan UV paint set.

10. New memory ram? My motherboard only supports up to 800mhz and i heard some ppl went 1066 but i'm skeptic.

11. Try water cooling switech kit? Skeptic with water leaks, temps are same as air cooling anyways, i can get good airflow temps compared to those who use water cooling. I never done water and i'm too scared to try and ruin my hardware.

12. Spend money on live porn webcams? LOL

13. Blu Ray Driver CD?

14. A new tower from Frozen.cpu. they have antec 1200 or 902 full bolt windows? Good idea? or Stick with original window? I'm no mod expert.

15. Scythe cpu stablizer to replace my stupid push pins. I hate push pins. perhaps increase lower temps. 11 bucks measly cheap product and works awesome.

16. New PC game? Good ones ain't out til Feb and March.

17. a new fleshlight?


18. New sleeve kit? Power Blends they are improved design and more braided and glow mad uv too. Performances PC has it.

19. Buy modfilter mesh filters to replace the ac filter i added in my 900 and panty hose on my side fan? Personal mod but sponge filters suck and it still works lol. Kinda stupid


20. your suggestion?

Kinda funny list i know and i don't wanna waste your time but it'd be interesting to listen to a second opinon. Check my system specs if you have any ideas what i should do. Still undecided at the moment. Thanks and have a merry christmas!

A good quality PSU.

Oh and FYI water cooling would get way, way better temps than a spin Q.
Then i'm gonna wanna have it sleeved because it's a HEADACHE to sleeve the ATX connector and i already broke my old ones, It's gonna not be easy. I have a SLI certified power supply and it ain't a year old? What's wrong with mine?

mobo/cpu/psu

Any of those three would be a wise investment.
# 17 for sure.

no seriously, maybe a new mobo, gfx card. like a ud3p, and a 5770, and possibly a new psu, or hdd
Not a HUGE fan of ATI no offense bro

I'm assuming you have this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-019-_-Product

What's wrong with it? It's an Apevia. They're crappy. I wouldn't run SLI on something like that. Plus that PSU is a total joke. Could do way better for the money.

Agree, new processor Q9650/9550.
CPU Cooler: Megahalem.
New Hard Drive: Do you need more space? or New PSU: Corsair HX650

CPU Cooler: Megahalem . <--nice idea.. what's wrong with mine?

Umm...yeah I'd seriously think about replacing that. It's the same specs as the one I posted, it's just acrylic. It screams cheap.

I mean what PSU nowadays doesn't have Active PFC?

ha ha yea a real woman is nice you forget the point of fleshlights. It's good and safe and good for your practice lol. Btw the psu is a good suggestion,still undecided. I need to get a new psu but it's gonna have to be sleeved. Look at Frozen.Cpu WEBSITE and make a suggestion, i'm curious. I'm surprised you said my psu is cheap? It's SLI certified. Weird..
I'm still aiming towards a new case but a processor seems a smart idea, it's so hard to decide.

HAHAHA so I'm gonna keep the rust off by sexing up a glorified tube? Sounds like a plan. That's like saying you're practicing driving by sitting in a car, steering and pushing the pedals, except the car is in park.

As for the PSU, again, it's junk, total junk. It would probably blow up if you loaded it near 680w, SLI certified or not. That's just marketing.

Almost all PSUs are sleeved now. This Corsair would be fine if you can buy from newegg.

The build quality on those things is a little bit less than desirable. The power supply it's self works perfectly except the fans inside the one I had were crap and kept giving off an annoying whining sound so I replaced it. Assuming yours doesn't have that problem, there shouldn't be anything wrong with the PSU you have. Some of the power supply snobs out there will tell you it's going to blowup and nuke your neighborhood because it isn't a corsair/Antec, but as long as it's not giving you problems, I wouldn't worry about. Upgrade that processor.
I meant colored sleeves that are UV reactive
not the standard crap lol. I'm a sleeve uv nut dude. BTW jacking off reduces prostate risk and it's a known fact besides i don't have it although but the thing is, it's just fun and healthy now off topic, forget the sex chat lol. Cosairs are great though.
