    New budget gaming pc - for legend of mir

    I have windows 10 already, installed it on my mac. Budget can also be pushed to 1k if need be. I don't want to go too overboard though as I doubt i'll have much time to do anything on it other than play a 15 year old game :).

    Maxtor 3200 broke, is rma possible?

    I can't believe I've done this after spending years with computers but in the interest of saving time moving my external maxtor 3200 harddisk between my ps3 and computer, I used another power supply already near my pc which had a different voltage (din know and din check at the time!)...
