I got myself a new toy. |

A new toy to the tune of a new computer. I replaced my machine of 7 years with the first pre-build computer I've ever owned, a Dell Studio XPS Desktop.
Compared to my old Athlon XP 3000+ machine, this thing screams. It's got an Intel i7 920 at 2.7GHz, 4GB of 1066MHz DDR3 RAM, and an ATI Radeon HD 4850 card. So far the only thing that's dropped below 60FPS that I've thrown at it is Fallout 3 at Ultra High and 4x MSAA when wandering the wastelands, and even then it only drops to 40 or so. Burnout Paradise runs at high settings, 8x MSAA, and this thing doesn't even blink.
Happy birthday, merry christmas, and happy next year's birthday, me!
