Does anyone know of a forum or something where I can get some help choosing what parts to buy for a new computer? Or should I just find a good package deal, like something that comes with the computer, monitor, keyboard, etc.?

It's really personal preference. I would like to think that the Vendors don't rip you off too much but from what I have seen, they do. If your looking to go the custom route go to Tom's Hardware and Legion hardware. Tom's Hardware has some pretty useful charts about comparing performance. You should read them.

Edit: Added links

yea i've been to toms hardware but what id really like is someone who knows there way around building a computer to chat with, that way i can describe what I need this computer to do and he can suggest what part would be best.

Eraser - sounds like you had a great time!

I'm back! I've been gone for a while - work/vacation/other business. Anyways, I just wanted to check in - I've been looking over the forum from my phone, so I haven't really posted [in case some of you saw me browsing].

Looks like a lot of the competitions have finished/are about to finish/ or have already restarted - I'm looking forward to getting back into those!

Ok, so I was searching random stuff on Google (My name, every friend I know's name, etc.).

After a while I searched "Stretix" - another username I use (Aol, TPB, etc.).

After a couple pages, there was a link to a runescape forum... which doesn't make sense, because my username on runescape was 007nike.

Anyways, I check out the web page, and find that it's littered with PDN SIGS! How did this happen - my username, runescape, and paindotnet... all in one.

Anyways, I'd like people to know that if your sig was listed it was credited. Some people are tHs, Expired, J2K, and my current sig is on there too (blurry version). Thing is - I'm not credited...thanks "Youhei" [user that posted our sigs]. :roll:

Ahaha - hey at least you stuck your name in the pics, right?

That's pretty pathetic man. They didn't even credit you or anything...

BB- you need to start using your face as a sample image of your plguins :P - then you'll be all over the internet!

Well, it's my last day (actually, few hours) in D.C. Had to wake up at 4 AM today, waiting for our plane to start boarding. It was delayed, again, for a mechanical issue, so we're going to get an update on that at 7. Next time I post, I'll probably be back home, in good ol' California.

:mrgreen:

Call me expired. Please.

I was looking ovet the link that I posted, and noticed that Youhei said ChampJev (sp?) 's sig is 100% PDN. Now as we all know, he uses renders/stocks/brushes/ etc.

Make sure 100% really is 100% guys!

:P
