      Thanks @mike-ralston but when my PS4 started out performing my PC I decided it was time to upgrade my SLI GTX 460's.

        I have spent way too much on my gaming rig..

        Core
        Obsidian 800D Corsair Case
        ASUS Maximus V FORMULA LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Extended ATX Intel Motherboard
        Intel Core i7-3770K Ivy Bridge 3.5GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics ...
        Mushkin Enhanced Blackline 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model 997050
        EVGA SuperClocked 03G-P4-2783-KR GeForce GTX 780 3GB 384-bit GDDR5

        Cooling
        CORSAIR Hydro Series H80 (CWCH80) High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler

        Inputs/Display
        Hanns-G HL272HPB Black 27" 2ms LED Monitor (x3)
        Razer Naga
        Razer Blackwidow 2013 Ultimate Mechanical Keyboard

        Storage
        60GB SSD for OS, 250GB SSD for Games, 2TB for Misc.

        I started with budget parts and now pre-ordered some of my components. These are my preferences based off of that.

        Corsair for Cases, RAM, Coolants
        EVGA for Mobos, GPUs
        Mushkin or g.Skill for RAM
        Intel for CPU (some great AMD's out there though)

        Had great luck with EVGA and Corsair's customer service and RMA processes.

        Wow. My computer cost me $375 off-the-shelf (Asus Essentio) and about the same for the video card and power supply. That was in 2011. The SSD was less than $100 late last year.

          Haven't played in years, but my favorite racing game was Pro Race Driver, I had it for PC and PS2. Loved Need for Speed Most Wanted v1.

            @alexntg You're sure you've got that right? The video card itself he has there is worth significantly more than that.

              The pricing I paid was for my computer, not his.

                  That's not what I said. I said that I paid about the same for the video card and power supply as I did for the computer.

                        My curent gaming rig is a Acer Aspire v3... 16GB ram and an Nvidia something or another with 2GB of ram. It has played every game I've thrown at it beautifully.

                            While we're on the subject of necrothreading, I'm thinking of picking up a GTX 980 and a 1440p monitor that supports gsync. time to start looking for holiday sales.
