What is the best christmas present that you have received, and why was it the best? [150 words min]
- This is gonna be a bit nerdy.
The best Christmas present I have ever gotten? I would have to say that would be my computer. My old laptop was literally held together by duct tape and I had to hold the screen so it didn't fall. It was extremely hard to draw, not to mention it was very slow and lagged quite a lot. So I kept begging my mother for a desktop, and not just any desktop. I wanted to build my own computer. Now, this was more of a Christmas, birthday hybrid gift, as I didn't get it until my birthday in March. Finally, I was allowed to do it! I was given a $1,000 budget, so I got a snazzy case and began to get all the components, trying to maximize quality and performance while staying in budget. I got an 800 watt power supply so I wouldn't have to worry about a good enough power supply in the future when I was upgrading, a decent AMD R7 360 graphics card as a starter (I want to get atleast a GTX 980 in the future), an AMD A6-7400K Radeon R5, 6 Compute Cores 2C+4G (I hate such a lame processor but ugh, budget. I'm definitely upgrading to AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor, maybe an Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz if I can afford it by then.), GA-F2A88X-D3HP motherboard (will likely upgrade if I run into problems with compatibility), and an 8 gig DDR3 memory. (I'm eyeballing the Kingston HyperX FURY 16GB 1600MHz DDR3
