    Wow, this looks great. I think I'm gonna have a look at microcenter website, although it's a bit higher that what I got in mind, but the specs are awesome! EDIT: Only available for pickup and no store in FL. Any other good website besides NewEgg and MicroCenter?

    Upgrade or go for new stuff?

    Wow! Thanks for all the replies. Won't go AMD. I'm Intel/nVidia fanboy lol. Also, I was checking on 13 gen Intel's, but I don't want to spend that much on a CPU only. The budget (which I should have said it on my first post) could be around 300ish to get a CPU+MOBO+RAM in case that I ditch...

    Help choosing a laptop

    Jeez I think that Dell it's the one to go. Sadly it's out of stock, so will check on newegg and amazon. What I really liked about the surface is the quality, feels a lot like a macbook, but I'm not a big fan of MacOS even tho I've been using iPhone since the 2g lol. Yeah, I'm not comfortable...

    As we live the age of game remakes, which game you would like to see to have a remake?
