WhiteKnight77 Posted February 20, 2010 Author Share Posted February 20, 2010 Interesting statistics so far. With 6 real votes so far, quite a bit of money has been spent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteKnight77 Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 Think about it, I bought a MachV at $3700+ and then a short time later installed a new HD at $200 and bought a new monitor at around $250. If you toss in the other stuff I already had like a speaker system, mouse, keyboard and mousemat then I have spend close to $5000 easily.

thales100 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) Yep, $5000 isnt that much money when you talk about high end rigs. Edited February 21, 2010 by thales100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sup Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 $5000 is a year of college tuition at a good in-state school in most of the US I love videogames, and a high end computer helps me for school/future career, but my current pc is around 400 dollars off and on and my total expenses over the last 6 years is no greater than 1.5k. It's a great hobby and it's worth spending money on but i don't see it being worth sacrificing other things in life. I would have a hell of a lot less ability to pursue hobbies like boxing and jiujitsu or to cover transportation costs and school if i dumped that kind of money on PCs -- but i'm young, and dont have a lot of income atm.

Cpl Ledanek Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I'll have to check my wife's pulse if she allowed me to spend a total of $5000....but then again, I spent over $5000 on jewelry on her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrowmanUK Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I absolutely dread to think how much i've spent on the upgrade trail since I got my first pc (386sx25) so i'll try not to, I could probably have got a really nice car instead of all those redundant boxes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoQuarter Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 ^Agreed. And shoes for the little ones. 8088 for M1 Tank Platoon, F19 Stealth Fighter ____ What I find surprising is that someone here has shelled out >$5000 on vid games! VBS1+packs, VBS2 must be in their collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
