finally upgraded my gtx 470 to a 960 4GB, played gta 5 on max 1080 with no slow downs :ohlawd:

Built my rig about 5 years ago and I think that was the first major upgrade since then.

Currently got:
Cooler Master Haf X case
GB X58A-Ud3r
i7 950
16GB
128GB SSD
For Data I'm messing with Storage Spaces doing similar to Raid 1 with 2.5TB of capacity.

Used to OC back in the day but not anymore.
My Corsair 750 Watt PSU died. Should I go with another 750W or go bigger, I think even now the 750 was overkill for my rig.

750 is overkill for one gpu and probably not enough for two. I'd go 600-650 unless you want space for second gpu

Make sense..., My OG build had 2xATI 4550 then upgraded to 2 x GTX 470, now im sitting with 1x960. I'll go with a 650W then.

i legit had a dream during the weekend that it was a week from release and i was scrambling for money to cop the newest high end gpu :mjlol:
it was a timed pc exclusive like witcher 2 and the metascore was at 98 :ahh:

then i wake to hear this shyt about them reworking the development tools :sadbron:

im hoping on this being my generation's half life 2 or crysis... a love letter to pc gamers that makes us actively want to upgrade our rigs rather than force our hands with inflated sys requirements and console port fukkery :scusthov:

not a single developer i trust with this atm besides cdpr though :salute:so let the waiting game begin.

My fukking broken VIve controller replacement was sent back to me today finally :whew:

I'm gonna try to hook up both my Rift and Vive to the same PC tomorrow (I have enough USB 3.0 slots). Hopefully my shyt doesn't blow up :sadcam:
