Might just run integrated graphics for 2 weeks or so until I can buy myself a proper card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Christopher` 8 #4 Posted November 7, 2016 Include the r9, and just up the price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want to be team green! @Christopher`, I've changed the specs up a bit. 550$ sound good for the old system (build in 2015) or shall I up the price? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
