Building A Computer

[Deathmath]

Well, in any case I am not impressed with the new boards, but that's not my bone to pick. Let's get the difficulties resolved. But my question is:

 

 

 

Previously I asked for help with building a computer. Unfortunately I could not find the post and recover it. I ended up getting a similar build to kreigsmier. So... 1) snipersas helped me so if you can reinvent that build. It came to like a little under 7 or 8 hundred can't remember which. It was extremely similar to kreig's. So if kreig could post his build as well? Sorry,

Please read the news announcements on the main site and on the forum.

I'm happy to announce that the forum is up, but I also have sad news. We lost 2 and half months worth of posts. Of course you will ask why and how this happened. Unfortunately one of our own staff, an ex tech admin who maintained the forum for a number of years, backstabbed us as his goodbye act. He used his inside technical knowledge to hurt us. Tip.It has lost hundreds if not thousands of dollars that I will have to cover, but what is more important is the loss of 2 and half months of creativity from our community: ideas, guides, jokes, links and much more. We worked hard to recover whatever was possible and for this we can thank Neminon and especially can thank Marshalrusty who spent sleepless nights and a ton of his free time to bring the forums back. His help was priceless.

 

That would include deleting many forum backups that we had.

Eww. Just make sure somebody gets this. I know somebody know's kreig's build.

I think we all could go into how we would backup our own servers etc, but in the end sh*t happens.

 

 

 

People have learnt some very hard lessons here and I think we need to move on, Tip.It crew must be feeling bad enough without us reminding them about it. Lets try and bring the board back up to its former glory and put this setback in the annals of the past. Whoever that guy who back stabbed Tip.It is should be totally ashamed of themselves. It was totally unprofessional and deserves to follow them around for a very very long time.

Off the topic:

 

I thought tip.it might have had a full backup to an external device or media every few weeks or at least once a month.

 

Each to there own I suppose.

Agreed.

My computer runs like a DREAM. It feels great and looks great. I run Age of Conan (the newest hardware hungry game out there) on high detail everything at max and i have no problems. I had a few bumps in installation and setup but being my first build it went smooth. Word of advice, try and get retail everything, OEM is cheaper, but you don't always get the manuels or CD Driver discs with the product and thats the snag i hit. Retail versions can save you headaches.

 

 

 

Oh yeah and i will be getting an additional 4GB RAM tomorrow. I'll be rocking 8GB.

[Deathmath]

Yay. Where did you get yours where it was OEM? Just want to avoid that. Is newegg OEM, or is is specific. Thanks a lot krieg.

[Kriegsmier]

I think it was Newegg, or ZipZoomFly. I forgot. Just read it, it should say OEM. Read the customer reviews too.
