Welcome Back (Disc07's NES PC Build: Part 1.0b)


So here it is, the time for me to pick up where I left off as writer here on the blog. Some very big things have happened as of late, and I am overly sorry that the quantity of posts has taken a hit while I was away. In the meantime, Spieg89 has been busy at writing and we have been featured on the newest episode of the Assassionista Podcast entitled "All Kinds of Surprises and Craziness!" If you are not already a listener I suggest you head on over there and check these guys out! Anyways, that is enough for the news, now on to the bulk of the announcements:

With the release of Blizzard’s long-coming Diablo III today, I would like to begin a new “PC Building” segment to the blog. It has been about eight years since my last build (in the years of Pentium 4 processors, tube monitors, IDE ribbon cables, and believe it or not, a frequently used floppy disk drive); I have been itching ever since to start up another project. 

" Fool! You have just ensured the doom of this world...Now run! Take the stone and run! "
Over the next month, in a last minute ditch to build a strong enough gaming pc to effectively run the latest installment to the Diablo franchise, I will be posting where my current build is at along with previews and reviews of each piece of hardware that I will be incorporating into the build, finally culminating into a final review of the system, as well as Diablo III (albeit, much later than other sites).  This will work out to be a budget build, with my goal to be less than $600 total. Of course, the classic theme of the blog will be taken in to account with the build and hopefully the results will be more than spectacular (and most likely will not require that 3.5" floppy drive)!

Ick.. the only thing good I remember from you is Sim City...
The first installment of this new segment will kick off tomorrow, and should continue each Monday, Wednesday, and Friday thereafter until the build is finally finished. Once again, thanks for all of the support, and we hope that you enjoy what is to come in our future!

Cheers!
