Re: Gaming PC, what should I buy ?
Getting closer to a decision on this. Stay tuned
There was no escape, I did get back into it and read many articles and reviews.

Re: Gaming PC, what should I buy ?
Little follow-up on this.
Since we got the computer last year, my son has been hooked up to Rainbow Six big time. He became a very good player and he's following the Pro League religiously.
We are going to the Six Invitational together friday: https://rainbow6.ubisoft.com/siege/en-u ... ional.aspx
He is very excited. Good times. Well worth the investment to see him enjoying it so much.

Re: Gaming PC, what should I buy ?
The company I worked for in 1993 bought that same computer with extra graphics pipelines for $1M. They over promised on the graphics specs and when the in-house graphics generator project failed that was the only computer capable of delivering what the customer had bought.HPR Pinball wrote:A 250,000$ pc !!
