On building computers


~Shockwave~

Once. Just. Once. Would I like for everything to plug in and freaking work.

But no. It's got to throw a freaking RAM error even though I know it isn't the RAM because I'm using it to complain on my blog that my other motherboard is throwing a RAM error.

 

Ugh. Is it really too much to ask to have something work properly the first time? First I had to get a new motherboard because the one I have is in a case that won't accept my new graphics card. (My dad works on computers for a living, so he brings me bits and pieces to mess around with because he can't use them at work anymore) So I have to switch to a different case that takes a standard power supply. And now I'm back at the other case that has a power supply that technically won't power the new card, but some fiddling and fancy cables alleviated that, but it clearly isn't offering the performance it's supposed to be.

 

So yeah. Fun.

 

So if anyone needs me I'll be doing something that doesn't involve tearing apart a computer for the fourth time today.

Oh, the joys.  good luck.  luckily everything worked for me (despite minor human errors on my part).  If you don't mind, what's the new GPU?
