So my PC has been a running joke for a while now. Always running games at the lowest setting and always getting horrible fps. Try raiding in Rift with 8-10 fps. I’ve  managed well enough though and never had problems with avoiding shit that i had to while still topping dps charts, for rogues anyways. It was long overdue but i finally built my first pc since 2006. The old pc had some updated components but still lacked punch.

   The difference is ridiculous. My old cpu was always running at 100% and bottle necking my gpu big time. I seriously don’t know how i managed to raid properly with that old piece of crap. I do find it ironic that i finally build this and am currently not playing anything. I should have some nice fraps going once GW2 is out.
