Update post #91 - Cupcake needs help for her little muffin. **Thank you everyone for your help**

12,738 11,124 May 21, 2014 at 07:00 AM in Help
My son is a big time gamer and his computer is very old and slow. He has saved $1,000 for a new one. I'm so proud of him for saving his money for it.

It needs to be a gaming worthy Desktop computer.

Any suggestions for him?

He just needs a tower. Has a good monitor already.


Yes I know that we have a forum for this kinda thing, but I heart my lounge friends and trust you to do me right. Blowkiss

His Desk top just arrived today!!! Not set up yet, but here is a picure of it sitting on my end table. Have to get his desk cleaned off and his files loaded onto discs before we set it up on his room.
