Savage, the pr server is usually dead from 7am - 11am UTC

The whole point of my build was to last 3 - 4 years. I'm actually using an amd build myself, but I upgrade parts every year or so. I'm assuming melon uses the same pc for years which is why I picked parts that would last a long time and play every game in his steam library.
Rotblut has a great build for a temporary pc that would run PR just fine, but the hdd and processor would be a downgrade compared to what melon had. If you have the money It would be better to just spend a couple hundred over budget to have a good pc that would last for years and be a huge upgrade to what you previously had. -
I was thinking something like:
Cpu: i5 4690k
Cpu Cooler: Hyper 212 evo
Mobo: H97 Extreme (or any motherboard that supports i5 and uefi)
Ram: Crucial ballistix 8gb
Case: Any mid size case
SSD: Samsung 850 evo 120gb/250gb
GPU: GTX 960 2gb
This build i quickly put together is about $775, but it will run every game you play, just swap the i5 and gpu for something cheaper if you want to get it under $700. Or if you wanna pick out your own parts I can tell you if they're compatible or not and walk you through how to put it together. I don't know much about pre-built computers so if that's what you're looking for I can't really help you there.
Edit: Forgot to add a power supply, a 650 watt should do which adds an extra $50 - $60, but you can still easily swap out a couple parts to bring the total down to $700.

Hey storm, you need to go to user profile > pictures and click "set as avatar", if you do it through the registration settings it won't work most of the time.

Looks like someone forgot to set the ticket ratio back after the event. I'm not sure if it was intentional or not, but I've been getting complaints that the rounds were ending too fast so I went ahead and set it back to what it was.
