Well the first build I actually saw on Reddit and decided to add it as a control. The last time I build a pc for gaming had to have been ten years ago so I', just weary of compatibility. When it comes to PC gaming I'm a Blizzard fanboy but if I decided to play some crazy game in ultra and stream it I would like the option. I still believe the i5 build will allow that, and I can just get an 850w power supply instead of the 650. If you want to recommend substitutions i'd be all ears, as I've been out of the game so long.

Space Jam time...can't wait to dunk on all you white folk.

So I am finally going to bite the bullet and get over buyer's remorse. I'm a 29 year old man and my wife and I have good careers, time to rekindle where it all started. I'm just on the fense about i5 or i7. I know for gaming and streaming there's no reason for an i7 but it's still nice to have.

My company only gives me 19" monitors, also they don't match which urks me a bit.

I thought this would be a neat topic for a change. Go snap a picture of your current gaming or office setup in your home. I am always really motivated to see other's setups. My biggest struggle is cable management while renting a property and cannot hide wires in walls. I have different lengths of networking cables to make it a bit better but the power cords are just awful for me. Took using AutoStich on my iPhone 6 Plus. Xbox One and PS4 plus charging stations are on that Ikea table. 46' Samsung LED TV. This townhome we are renting has a nice upstairs area that's away from the bedrooms once you come up the stairs. Work computer & monitors along side of my laptop.

I just want them to pick a Spiderman and stick with it. The suit looked a little weird.

So for some reason I don't believe it looks any different...

They are dropping like flies.

I had to borrow a friend to trade my haunter to him and back so I could have Gengar. Blastoise, Gengar and Snorlax was my core. I'll never forget that game in middle school/ high school.

Getting ready to rekindle my love of Pokemon before Sun and Moon. Buying a 3DS and Blue on virtual console. Squirtle/Blastoise is still the greatest of all time. Charmander & Charizard are bitches, and Bulbasaur...well enough said.

I like the term "looter shooter" better than RPGs. I still don't think The Division is an RPG

Warframe- Quick Start Guide.

I am sorry that I have never known this man, but I wanted to post here to be respectful. It's never easy to lose a friend or a fellow gamer. I'm sorry guys.

1500 is my budget and there are some monster laptops from Asus Republic of Gamers.

Ah shit that would explain it. Google brought me to an i7 version priced at 900, stupid mobile.

An i7 is a waste for gaming, especially for what he wants it for unless he plans to also be streaming. There is a marginal difference between the i5 and i7.

You pretty much have the same game demands as me, basically Blizzard games and mobas. I'm on mobile right now but I'll edit this post and make some suggestions.

I just wanted to give him a hard time via the forums.

What price range are you comfortable in?

I invited Bart this morning and was snubbed, lol. [emoji853]

This game, is dope. #ash

"The problem seems to be that when they make a change and it backfires, rather than undo the change, they find all these other variables to alter in hopes that everything just aligns. Like, imagine Bungie had a sprinkler for their lawn, and in an effort to water more of their lawn with the 1 sprinkler, they move the sprinkler. Turns out, less of the lawn is getting water. Rather than move the sprinkler back, or somewhere in between the first two places, Bungie starts investigating into Water pressure, hose girth, and the angle of the arc of water. Just move the damn sprinkler back." ----- Discuss? I would be okay with this junk if Bungie just admitted fault once in awhile. "Auto rifle buff didn't do anything? Uhh... A mistake? No, we didn't screw up implementing it, it's working as intended! The patch notes? Typo... The preview notes, forum posts, and tweets dating back 2 months? Typos, all typos." Just go, "There was an error in implementing the buffs in the last patch, we'll fix it in the next hotfix."

So this is probably the other game I will play every other day for an hour or two still. I really think overall they have done a great job and every other month a big content update is pushed with feedback stemming from Reddit and other social media. 50% of this stuff wasn't in the game at launch, which pissed folks off but the developers are shockingly dedicated in updating this game. From this I have really began to like the guys over at Ghost and would consider buying future titles. The new hot rod is at the top of the list, costing 225,000, I barely had enough. The drag racing missions and the system itself are a little bit of a let down, there's no real shift "zones" but hey that's not in a real car either. Powerful cars are extremely twitchy and hard to shift with.

By Ben Walke - March 1, 2016 GAME UPDATE: HOT RODS Under the Hood #5 Manual Transmission, new cars, more garage space and Drag Racing. All things you've been asking for and all of which will be going into the next update, due March 3rd. New Feature: Manual Transmission A few weeks ago we broke the news that Manual Transmission would be making its way into Need for Speed and we're really pleased to be able to confirm that it'll arrive as early as this week. We know that this is a feature that many of you have requested and we can't wait for you to get your hands on it. New Cars: Hot Rods Arriving fresh into Need for Speed are two brand new Hot Rods. Starting with the 1932 Hot Rod which will come with four unique Bodykits. Each of these bodykits has the potential to transform your Hot Rod into a great new look; Soft Top, Coupe, Sedan and Pickup. Each version of the Hot Rod also comes complete with a full set of customization, including Hood, Lights, Grille, Exhausts, Bumpers and more. The second Hot Rod being added into Need for Speed is the Aaron Beck ‘BeckKustoms F132’. This is an absolute monster of a ride and defines the word ‘custom’. When you take the shell from a Ford 1932, gently massage it into a fierce Formula One style chassis and strap in a high performance NASCAR engine, this is what you get. New Events: Drag Racing Inspired by the Drag Events of previous NFS titles, these new events are the perfect place for you to get your speed fix. Unleash a burnout on the starting line to prime your wheels, align in the start box and time your revs perfectly. Think wisely about the use of nitrous, as it may just influence the outcome of the event. There will be five new Drag events for you to take part in; Neck to Neck, The Perfect Shifts, Drag the Town, Pedal to the Metal and Speed Tunnel. New Feature: The Warehouse You’ve read that we’re adding new cars but before you head over to Twitter or Reddit to proclaim you need more garage space we’ve got your back. Starting next week your garage will receive an upgrade that will allow you to store an additional five cars, perfect for those eyeing up a new ride and no excuse now not to take a Hot Rod for a fun-filled spin around Ventura bay. Wrap Editor Improvements We’ve been constantly blow away by your Wrap Editor creations and we can’t wait to see what you do based on the improvements coming in the Hot Rods update. One of the most common bits of feedback we’ve received about the Wrap Editor is that you would like a coordinates system allowing you to position decals with a lot more accuracy. This information will now be shown in a panel below the selected decal in the edit decal menu and will update in real time when the decal is transformed. Writing on your car also becomes even easier as we introduce Text Decals 2.0 and selectable fonts. Simply select your desired font and a popup will appear where you’ll be prompted to input your desired text. Animations within the Wrap Editor are also being improved including: Animation indicating when a decal has been added to a vehicle Improved animation to indicate more clearly the selected decal on a vehicle Speed up info text animation when showing an action happening Achievements and Trophies There are three new achievements and trophies for you to go and unlock: Drag Queen – Win five Drag Race events Wrap it up – Download a shared Wrap Kustom kar – Buy your first Hot Rod Full Patch Notes With this Living Game update there will be two new vehicles, a new game mode and Manual Transmission. We are bringing Hot Rods to Need for Speed! Firstly the Ford 1932 Hot Rod, secondly the Aaron Beck BeckKustoms F132. Along with the Hot Rods players will now be able to play a Drag Race and use Manual transmission On top of these big features the update also includes: A Virtual Warehouse where you can keep an additional 5 cars in your garage Improved Snapshot overview screen in the Need for Speed Network menu so you can find out more about your snapshots Improvements Snapshot Pro mode Improvements to the wrap editor 3 new Trophies and Achievements More campaigns for Rep / Cash and Discounts A variety of tweaks and improvements including game play, World and audio Multiple stability fixes Source (http://www.needforspeed.com/news/game-update-hot-rods?utm_campaign=nfs_hd_ww_ic_soco_twt_web-uth05-02182016-tw&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&cid=1536&ts=1456837207361&sf44820360=1)

See, this is why I am still skeptical of this company even after Rainbow 6: Siege release. R6:S was a knockout but every dog has its day.
