Building DD’s Computer

DD’s computer is over 5-6 years old and running quite slow.  Now that he is playing Diablo 3 with his computer’s integrated graphics card, his character looks like he is walking in slow-mo.  So we went to Fry’s to build him a computer like I had done with Mercury and Jupiter which have and will last for many years.  But since AD and family was arriving tomorrow, there was not much time for me to build it.  So we picked out the components and had Fry’s build it.  DD picked out the case.  We left and ate at a BJ’s in Orange County near by.  Thought that we would not be able to pick up the computer until tomorrow, we went home.  Got a call a few hours later saying that it is ready and we can pick it up today if we get there before 9p.  It was 8p when we got the call.  So we rushed over there and got it.  Took it home and I installed Windows 7. (Ya, Fry’s had an OEM version.  Sweet.)  And it runs real fast and Diablo 3 looks great.

So the specs:

CPU:  Intel Core i7 4790
Motherboard:  ASUS H97-Plus
Hard Drive:  WB Blue 7200 1TB
Video Card:  Gigabyte GeForce GTX 960
Power Supply:  Corsair CX 750
