Good choice.
>2 titans
best card on the planet
>8gb
way too small, he should upgrade that to 64gb

All in all, not bad for $5000 which I'm 95% sure is only going to be used to play Rocket League and League of Legends.

Ehhh that's about what I spent, but mine was a "congratulations on finding that box of ABU magic cards" present to myself. I sure as fuck wouldn't spend that much on a build with an i5, or a build just to game.

Probably true.

4.5 years ago Phenom II 1100T x6 3.3GHz, 2 6990s, 16GB of RAM, verging on being obsolete for new games. Still good for parallel compute and hosting VMs.

Actually that's totally not true, you fucking retard.

Pretty much any piece of hardware can last you 5 years without the need for an upgrade except for the VGA.

iPads aren't fun.

>>51649469
Could have gotten them a WiiU / DS for less the price and gotten way more fun out of it. Children don't need fucking iPads.

Your brother/sister, whoever the fuck, spoiling their fucking kid this hard, is going to make him grow up to be an entitled little prick.
>>
>>51649521
Plenty of kids beg to differ, just because you don't like the iPad or Apple in general doesn't mean nobody else should.

>>51649584
Kids nowadays don't like Nintendo or devices dedicated just for gaming, the iPad or any tablet in general destroys a 3DS when it comes to game selection and multimedia stuff, and I'm pretty sure both the Wii U and 3DS are far more overpriced for what you get than the iPad, no matter which model they get.

I have never owned a 3DS (or any Nintendo hardware for that matter) and I still know this is some shitty bait. You need to be more subtle next time.

This never happens, it's always the reverse. A 4790k with a 750 ti or a 5960k with a 970 or some shit.
