Soooooo, after an hour or so of working on my computer, my brother and I have determined that my power supply is fucked up. So bad news is my computer will be out of commission for two days (hopefully back up on Friday), but good news is that my new power supply that I ordered is bad ass. Cick here to see it. If by the unfortunate event that my power supply is not here by Friday, I can use my laptop to play in matches and scrims. Anyways this marks the beginning of my computer upgrade year. I will be getting two new graphics cards (GTX 760s) later this year in addition to the new power supply. If need be, I will probably get a new case for my computer and a new cooling system. With the spare parts I have, I plan to make a computer dedicated to recording videos from my main computer and/or use it for dedicated servers. If not those, then I'll probably sell it for about 200 (probably more) dollars or give it to my girlfriend so she can use it. Just wanted to keep you update :3

Darin: Its funny, that's part of the reason I even looked at and bought it xD Otttiger: I know! They run for about 230 bucks each, so it'll be a nice little upgrade that'll last awhile. AwesomeDud: I am too :3

Welp, it turns out the the power supply is too wide. Well, that's not actually the problem, my case has an unessecary support that won't allow the power supply to lay flat. If I can remove the support somehow, I'll be golden.

Just thought I would add a little something to this.
Not so much a computer problem as my mouse wheel just went out. I am hoping I can fix it up if I can't I will have to buy a replacement mouse, which sucks cause I don't really have the money for it.
Just a heads up, cause this will effect my skill in warband (will have to use the num pad keys to swap weapons).
