Check our reddit.com/r/buildapc... they have all sorts of builds on the side bar based on price and performance.

One thing I might recommend is going with ivy bridge instead of sandy bridge... I can pit together a build for you a little bit later, if you like.

This laptop isn't quite doing it for me, so I'm looking into building a PC.
My build on PC Part Picker.

Any ideas? (The wireless adapter bit is still up in the air, can be removed without issue.)
My budget is around $1,300 but I would prefer to keep it lower if possible. (Need money to eat sometimes, blahblahblah)

Discussion / MGE Tournament Feedback

Yao yaooo!!

Wanted to get some feedback from you guys on how the MGE tournament went. I'm glad that pyyyour was able to help out with coverage, as mentioned elsewhere our resources have been strained lately, but we're really glad that Rehab was still able to get this event organized and completed!

Would love to hear feedback about the event, and how to make MGE tournaments better.

Would players be interested in a group stage format that then splits off into two seperate Low/High tournaments?

Discussion / MGE Tourney questions

« Last post by Auburn on Saturday, Aug 11, 2012 @ 12:43 AM PDT »

Uhh, didn't see a real thread for questions/discussion so thought I'd post here.

QUESTION NUMERO UNO

Can we get a Dallas server instead of whatever the server is now? Speaking on behalf of pretty much the entire west coast, but currently I ping 110 to the server. This same thing happened last time, and yeah, it aint fun.

QUESTION NUMERO TWO-O

Uhhh, can we get spire back into the map pool? Seriously. Gully mid is just a bad version of spire. Granted all maps are gay because it's MGE, but hey now, c'mon. You can't leave out spire. YOU CAN'T DO IT. At the very least, add it to the map pool so players can choose to play it. To be honest, I'd prefer having all of the maps available and letting people choose which they want to play on.

BUT, back on topic, please add spire back in. It's my favorite map and it's awesome and it's AIRSHOT INTENSIVE and it's the most fun. Badlands mid is more groundwork than airshots, granary mid is mostly just splashing the crates, and gully mid is just who can be more passive.

Seriously, there isn't a point in leaving spire out. It's better than all of those.
