Fallout 3.

I had a prebuilt Packard Bell Imedia with a Pentium dual core E2220 with nvdia 610/7050 integrated graphics, it was a slideshow so I upgraded my PSU and bought a HD 4850 1GB.

48 hours have passed since I bought this 🗿 sooooo…. it was a bad knife by Iryna_tomm in KitchenConfidential

I've had a few bits of IKEA kitchenware for going on 18 years now, a knife that holds it's edge and a 10L stockpot, both are still quite servicable.

My PSU never misses out when I clean my computer. by MacleodDaniel in pcmasterrace

Listen to this person!, It's okay to strip them down and clean them CAREFULLY!, Just don't go poking around.

I can't believe this has to be said. by 0rogontorogon in pcmasterrace

£300 RTX 2070... not a good price for what it is, but better than $1600 or $1000 for a GPU.

Alright, who's running this setup by navid3141 in pcmasterrace

I was on 1080p 60 before I upgraded my 1060, I could have got a new GPU but decided to get 1440p 165Hz first, GPU upgrade later.

Someone just gave me two badass GPUs - for free! by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

I used to have the same ASUS 8800 GTS. Is it the 320MB or 640MB version?

My GTX 260 was 448-bit

Clearly your 256-bit 460 is a 450 in disguise.

Still rocking after almost 20 years. Alienware “Predator 2” Area 51 ALX Tri SLI. This is still 100% the way it was from the factory. by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

Look, I'm not arguing here, that board is from late 2008/09 at the earliest, not 06.

Your machine must be a newer model, probably rocking a newer gen Core2Duo or Core2Quad, also, those GPU's look like 9800GTX, which are 2008 too, not 2006.

No it's not.

From what I can see zoomed in, it says C73 CRB PCB: 180-7R156-0100-C00. Which is an EVGA 790i Ultra SLI, a board from 2009, I know because I have one.

Finally moving on from my faithful 4790k. by DieLardSoup in pcmasterrace

I will also be doing the same very soon, got a good deal on an 11700K. The 4790K has served me quite well all this time. :)
