Wow, RAM as well?!
By the way, what are the games should I get to test the graphics card out? I can't download the Shogun demo from the unmetered site I usually use.

Dammit! I hate bigpond games arena, it has none of the games you're mentioning.
I bought a 21.5 inch 1080p screen today. It's pretty huge and super clear but I'm not liking it at all, too big. How big is your screen and how long did it take you to get used to it?

2 in... i mean 19 inches. I want 26 inch  :grin:
I've been using 17 inch monitors since the fat/hunchback days so it didn't take long to adjust to 19 inch at all.

Haha, nice. I've been using a laptop for 3 years, the screen was obviously a lot smaller so the adjustment isn't going well for me. I opened bf and there was like 6 inches on either side of nothingness. I magnified the size and now everything is filled up but pretty blurry. I think I might return the monitor and exchange it for a 19in..but then I lose the 1920X1080 resolution. Tough decision.

I got a
Monitor
Computer box
Mickey Mouse Keyboard
A mouse shaped like a snake
And a Dora the explorer mouse pad
I put "super" stickers all over it too so it's a super computer.
BONER!

I went with the larger monitor. It's pretty cool at the moment. There's a lot more space though and I have to magnify the resolution on web pages or they look empty and and the text will be too small.

That's not a build!
