this is sort of a duplicate of an old thread but.
Earlier this year I joined STO and played it on my laptop but then the game stopped working.
the past few months I have been saving up for a new computer.
Right now I have the money but I haven't ordered all the parts yet.

(so what I'm saying is it'll be a while before I'm actually playing again maybe a month or two)

But in the meantime I'll be on the forums.

WELCOME TO THE MADHOUSE! Mwah-ha-ha-ha!!!!

Seriously though, in behalf of all my fellow forumites I bid you welcome to our humble home.

Oh.. and do tell what specs your computer will have... How shiny will it be? :3

Not sure yet, me and my friend brad are still working on it.
All we got is the case (corsair carbide 300r)
and the power supply is on the way (corsair tx650 v2 i think)

Almost had to say something like this, but for different reasons. Monitor died. If not for my old CRT still being operational I would not be postsing this. Still, I hope my monitor gets fixed soon... I hate having to look at this fishbowl of a monitor that keeps projecting radiation into my eyeballs...

That monitor might give your eyes spider sense or something, the pay-off of radiation can be huge.

I had to dip into the car fund last week for funds for a new tower myself, since my old one died on me, so I know how it is. Hopefully you can get all your new parts and get back to gaming

Make sure you get a new ivy bridge i5/i7 or go for the sandy bridge e series i7 cpus (as I had a i5 second gen on the last system and even with a 580 1.5gb and 16gb ram there was a lot of micro stutter and dips in fps in sto).. if your going intel that is; have not been up to date on the AMD side last few months so not sure whats the equive atm lol.
