Title: So I Figured Something Out That Makes Me Sad.
Post by: Dracoslythe on December 07, 2010, 09:16:48 AM
Apparently my computer is a piece of shit when it comes to being able to play games.
So Kay can't play PC games (like, oh, idk...WoW?) like she wishes.

I have a 1.2 Ghz processor in my supposedly "powerful" computer.  My friend's NETBOOK had a 1.9.
Even though my lowest score on the Windows Experience Index rating wasn't my gaming graphics, at a whopping 4.5/7.9, but my regular graphics...the desktop performance for Windows Aero at 2.9/7.9.  My friend said he was surprised my computer could even run Windows 7, and the only thing holding it together was that I had a dual-core processor.

But, this is what happens when you let your mom pick out your computer.  I told her I wanted to look at all the specs and stuff first, and she was like "no, it's good enough -buy-"  She got it for 200 dollars less than the retail cost, so I think she was more worried about saving a penny than it being a decent computer.  Don't get me wrong, I like Acer, but this model just...sucks.  Well, the processor in it, anyway.





tl;dr - my computer sucks and is good enough to pretty much hold my OS, a browser, my art program, and MS Office.
