New Computer

I decided to build a new PC to run this. I didn't want to put an i7 ,GTX780ti in there or anything so I went with AMD's new AM1 platform, runs really well, plays Skyrim and Minecraft. and runs all the Arcade machines really well, which means I can add Sega Model 2, Nintendo 64 etc..And it plays Crysis 3 on maximum. Well that last one was a joke but not bad for an €80 PC.

    Good enough for what it need to do, not really good enough to play the newer games at 1080p though.
