Here!  I'll start!

I finally upgraded my computer this year.  The last computer I built was made in 2005 and ran on a Sempron processor. O_o

Specs!

AMD Phenom II 1055t Hexacore Processor (Overclocked to 4.0 ghz)
4GB 1333 mhz Corsair DDR3 RAM
XFX Radeon HD 5870 video card (Xypress XT, OC'd to 900/1250)
ASUS M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 motherboard (This is actually a really good motherboard for overclocking.  It has lots of options.)
Thermaltake Element G Black Case (Complete with cheesy LED lights!  Type R sticker not included!)

It feels good to finally have something current!  Ever since I started building rigs I'd always been jealous of computer illiterate people who'd get themselves super powerful computers and only use them to run Internet Explorer.

...Except now that I have a powerful computer, aside from gaming the most I'm using it for is running Firefox. O_o;

With mah six cores I could try more intensive stuff like video editing and rendering in 3D, but to be honest, I don't know where to start.  Since I got my 5870 there hasn't been a game that I haven't been able to play at max settings at 60 fps, save for Final Fantasy XIV, on account of that game being poorly coded.  If someone could recommend a good video editing program for optimizing videos for YouTube uploading I'd be greatful.

Have you dabbled with Wii/GC emulation?  Its my only interest in upgrading to a better rig, cause you know its an eyesore on regular television.  [emulated shot] -->

[Hyperguy]

I have not, though would love to try a Wii emulator to play No More Heroes.  Know of a decent one?

Edit: Eh, a simple Google search came up with Dolphin.  Guess I'll give it a shot.

Just buy a Wii you fags.

Then play Monster Hunter Tri and Samurai Warriors 3 with me online u_u

AND then you can play NMH1 and 2 offline ^o^

And for more Suda51-ishness you can then insert Killer7 for GC and enjoy it further U_u
