a year ago i made a thread asking for some advice regarding what parts should i buy for a new gaming pc,

well, after a looong time searching and saving money i bought this

motherboard: dont remember at all, tomorrow i'm going to update this

ram:4 gigs of DDR3

processor: phenom II x4 955 black edition 3.2 ghz

video card: radeon 5850 hd 1gb

hdd:320 gb(no need for more)

for how long will my video card support the latest games?

and also,

is my computer good?

hdd:320 gb(no need for more) -Are you out of your khekking mind?

em, not really

I admit to the overreaction, but dude, that's like one BluRay disc.

I have an obsession with HDD space if you couldn't tell, I have a couple TBs on my comp

I'm with him on this. The more stuff you have on your HDD the slower your computer runs. Inside HDDs are disks just like CD's (well they work like it) and it stores data on the outer and inner rings. Naturally the outer rings run faster but whats on the inner rings run slower. I have an external Terabyte drive specificly for pictures, music, and movies and an internal Terabyte specificly for software and games.

not true, the more stuff you have on your OS HDD, the slower. I have one 10kRPM OS HDD, and about 1.8TBs on raid for everything else.

I was agreeing with you telling him to get more and telling him why, he should get a bigger one. Plus 320 fills up very fast nowadays.
