New computer now what? help!

[EvilRyu2099]

I decided to calculate a high level PC for a possible PSU he could purchase and thought this would suffice..

Not even that much.. And pretty much a necessity since you bought a stock PC from HP.. Next time just buy a prebuilt desktop off newegg like ibuypower or cyberpower pc.. They even have cheaper models that you can upgrade accordingly.. If your main focus is gaming anyways..

I think he said the PC was a gift.

I'd argue to get a new PSU regardless. The stock PSUs in Dells, HP, etc are usually just complete shit.

Newegg has a 500w PSU for $29.99 after mail-in rebate.

It's in the top right corner of the page. An 80+ Corsair unit. I have a 430w unit myself and they're good quality.

It looks decent, but there's a fair amount of negative reviews on it. Some discrepancies with the power ratings. There's some good (negative) reviews to read through for it.

If im replacing the psu i might as well get a 600w one right? Give me more ability to pimp it out right? Anyhow ill probably do all this in a few months. Right now i need some autowork done.

You like WRPGs?

Some of my favorite (semi-)recent RPGs are Divinity II: Ego Draconis, Dragon Age: Origins, Risen, Torchlight, and The Witcher. Also check out the D&D collections.

i like WRPG's on console, just relaxing on the couch with a controller. i have been meaning to get witcher 2 on xbox and i have only played a few hours of skyrim and i bought it on release day.

not sure if you are into MMO's but Guild wars 2 is awesome, and you only have to pay the purchase price, no monthly subscriptions. I also have a pre-built computer, I did that is, replaced the power supply, ram, CPU, GPU, and motherboard. It is a Asus.

Seriously, why has nobody told this guy to return this heap of junk yet? If you're faffing around with PSU and GPU upgrades ALREADY after just getting it less than a month ago it should have been returned ASAP. 10GB of ram and 6 cores? wtf?

My troll detector is tingling.
