Not sure if that’s the name of the poem. It’s been (mis)attributed to a T.S. Watt, called “English”. A similar poem is The Chaos by Gerard Nolst Trenité, here read by Youtuber Lindybeige.

Barney disapproves of this.

They’re charging 100 € to build it, it seems.

I’ll think about but I’ll probably go with having it built for me. They charge 100 € for it which is not a lot when you calculate the cost of the parts. Thanks for the input, though.

Can’t upgrade my older rig, it’s an Acer pre-built and I watched a Youtube video about trying to upgrade it. Guy had to cut something out from the back to make room for the new GPU. Current specs are Geforce GTX 1080 Super and 16 GB of RAM. Runs hot and loud as all hell when I try to do some gaming on it. Regarding this new build, I also want to do some video editing, hence the higher specs.

I just went and added all the parts to the cart and it seems they are charging around 100 € for the build. So not 300-400 € like Telorand estimated. These are Scandinavian, not US prices.

Yeah, I don’t think I want to risk damaging the components. RAM seems to be C16 at 3200.

Thanks for the appraisal. Not surprised that there’s some extra in that price. Building it myself is not an option because I’m clumsy to the extent that I should get it diagnosed. Getting it assembled seems to be the cheapest alternative for me. But generally speaking, is that setup good enough to run older and indie games? At least the case seems to have plenty of fans. My current setup has practically no airflow and the fans are going crazy as soon as I even as much as touch a game.

Thanks for commenting. It won’t be of much help to you, it’s just a Scandinavian website that allows you to pick and mix your parts. Excuse me as I’m trying to hold on to my pseudo-anonymity.
