Building a high-end rig isn't all about skill... It's mostly about money! And that is sad.

Building a top of the line, high-end gaming rig isn't totally about skill... What it all boils down to is how much do you have to spend.

When it comes to building your very own rig a fair ammount of skill is involved. You do have to know what you are doing or you may end up waisting a lot of money and time. When I think about it, those of us who know how to build a computer all basically have the same type of skill set and know how how to do the job. We all know what is good, what is bad. Which parts are top of the line and which parts are crap. The only thing that builders may argue about or disagree with is which type of rig are you gonna build... Intel or AMD... Nvidia or AMD/ATi. Of course people have their opinions on RAM, SSD, cooling units and so on... But when it comes down to it... If you want to build the best, you have to buy the best, and to do that you have to spend a lot of cash, and I mean A LOT OF CASH! All of you know it is true. When ever you see someone that has an incredible rig set up, we are all probably thinking the same thing, "If I had the cash to spend, I would have a rig just as good or better". This is one of the main reasons I do not like posting my rig specs. I feel more like I am bragging about how much money I spent rather than how much smarts I used to build my rig.

It is ashame that a good gaming rig can cost an arm an a leg to build. If it were affordable to build gaming rigs I am sure there would be more PC gamers on the grid. When I first began to tinker around with building gaming rigs, I was astonished at just how much it cost to build a good one. At the time I was selling computers at Staples (back in 2000 and 2001) and the closest I would come to building my own rig was going online to virtually build one. I can remember selecting the best of everything just to see how much it would cost... The last time that I can remember doing that, the final price ended up costing more than I had spent on my car, and I had a decent car. It was used but it was really nice ('98 Pontiac Gran Prix GTP)! That last time I had come to the conclusion that I would never be able to afford my own gaming rig.

Low and behold, years later everything seemed to fall in place and I was finally able to build my own rig. It had been well over 10 years though since I had been in the computer game, and 10 years in the computer universe equals a lifetime of change. Everything was so different than what I could remember, but things were also cheaper. Or so I thought. Instead of 80gig hard drives there were now 500+ hard drives and ssd's. Back when I was in the game, a gig of ram was the max. Now you could have 32gigs or more depending on the mobo. I was in a totally different ball game than what I was used to. So I just bought a decent HP at Best Buy to do research on and went from there. At first I went to Steam for help, but when I realized that most everybody was going to make fun of me, ridicule me. laugh at me and call me names I decided to go about things in a different way. I ended up finding an overclocking community that was more than happy to help me. Instead of dogging me, they tought me and helped me become quite the builder.

After about 6 months of saving I heard about this game called The Divission and was so amazed that I took out a small loan to add to my savings so that I could build one monster of a rig. In the end I couldn't have been more proud of myself. I never knew that building a rig could be so much fun, but what I hate is the fact that if I want to stay on top I have to constantly spend more money because of how fast things evolve and change. I have no idea how some people do it, except for the fact that they must have an incredible job and the younger builders must have rich parents. I am always racking my brain when I upgrade my rig only to find out that what I bought already has a "new and improved" version on the market. I am blessed to be able to afford to do what we rig builders do... Extremely blessed!

Crossing over from console to PC I thought that the PC community was going to be so much more mature and less offensive. I was wrong. In some cases the PC community can be way more degrading, rude and eruptive. I had never seen a death threat over a video game until I joined the PC community. It seems that a lot of the PC community believes that they are smarter than console gammers. That they are superior and above them. This is not true at all. Although console and PC gammers enjoy their games in different ways doesn't mean either one of them is superior in any way. We are all people, and believe it or not... We all share one thing in common... We all love video games. I am sorry to say that I think it will only be a couple of years and consoles are going to catch up to or surpass computers. Already consoles have astounding graphics comparable to high-end gaming rigs and they only cost less than half of a gaming rig. I first noticed this when I was at a friends house and he was playing The Last of US remasterd on a very nice 60inch flat screen. I was embarassed at how much I had spent on my rig when I saw just how beautiful that game is. I didn't say that, but I surely thought it.
