Default Can you believe it - my wife...

My wife comes to me today and tells me I got to get a gaming machine. She has had it with Silent Hunter (SH4). It's always running on our desktop PC and she claims she never gets access to compute anymore.

Recently she started with Facebook and she's wanting more time online. So she wants me to get another computer for games. Would you believe it I got a free pass to go get a computer that will handle SH5 specs. Holy cow....

You poor guy - having your wife twist your arm like that. I really feel for you.

do some research on your build, and look into ssd drives.... they are blistering fast and im getting ready to swap over myself... but do your research, some are faster than others... if you want to see an extreme build watch this... but gives you an idea of how fast these are...
