nice setup mate

my original build was from June 2012

Asus P8H77-V LE Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance 16GB RAM, PC12800
Intel Core i7 3770K 3.50GHz 8MB Box
OCZ Agility 3 SSD 2.5", 120GB
Sapphire Radeon HD7850 OC 2GB DVI/HDMI/DP
2TB HDD
Corsair H60 water Cooling

However when I moved to Saudi I made a few upgrade in late 2014
I couldn't take my case or monitors with me etc so bought new ones
Upgraded the Motherboard (cause the first one I mistakenly bought one that couldnt be overclocked) and GPU at the same time and added a second SSD

So now its as follows:

MSI Z77A-G41 Motherboard
Intel Core i7 3770K 3.50GHz
Gainward GeForce GTX970 Phantom 4GB
Corsair Vengeance 16GB RAM, PC12800
Samsung 840 EVO SSD 120GB
OCZ Agility 3 SSD 2.5", 120GB
Corsair H60 water Cooling
2TB HDD
4TB HDD

2x BenQ RL2455HM 24" gaming monitors
Roccat Kone XTD gaming mouse
Roccat Kone Isku gaming keyboard (not shown in pic)



internal wiring has been much improved recently

Had a look earlier to see what games my iMac can run, apparently....none
£800 computer that can run nothing!

Obviously it will run all the low power usage games, but get to anything even slightly complex and it won't run it

Yea mines great for what I bought it for, doing all my business paperwork etc

Can't believe the amount of power you require to run some of the latest games!

The thing with the console vs PC debate has always been - if you have a PS4 and buy a PS4 game it is guaranteed to run as it was designed.

Unless you have a super high spec PC, then you could go out, buy a game and suddenly realise it doesn't work on your rig, so you have to sacrifice quality, speed, or cash to upgrade the machine to get the game to run.

The other downside (or upside in some cases) is the ability to mod games. GTA Online for example is almost completely unplayable online in public sessions due to the modders and hackers blowing up entire lobbies of people on spawn.

I built my PC 7 years ago - it struggles these days and perhaps I should think about building a new one - FPS games are so much better with a keyboard and mouse - and peripheral support on PC's is obviously so much better than consoles (still boycotting Logitech at the moment due to their PS4 G25 'policy')

But again, cost is the biggest factor. I'm hard pushed to want to spend £1500 on building a high spec gaming rig, having the space for it and time for it, when I can buy a £299 console which sits under the TV and is guaranteed to run any game released for it.
