So I fiddled with it a bit today, since you said you wanted something simple and wanted to mantain the design I tried to follow at most the initial one, doing some changes because of responsive ofc.

I have it hosted here temporarily http://soulsogame.byethost22.com/Blizzard/

Fiddle with it a little bit and give me some guide lines of what is wrong and should be changed.

Btw the songs part isn't done yet, if you hadn't figured it out by now :p

I would like to try this but I have a couple of questions:

• Do you want a responsive design?


• Is the original design to be kept or you want to go for a different approach


• Would you like an administrative panel where you could insert music inside the website?


• And finally will you consider having a MySQL database?

Hm, that makes ARC conpletely obsolete, right?

Unfortunately, yes. All I can't think off that ARC has and this doesn't is the tab-like syste. But we will have to wait to see how it turns out.

Welcome back!

Actually my experience with edge was pretty good, faster than chrome, the only problem I saw was a slight delay on the input, and HD videos would crash for me... but better than the old IE

Pretty sure the EU only has 1 server, but I might be wrong

I created my character on the only avaliable world in the EU server. Not sure if it's the one you're in

I played for an hour or so, as I tought my computer can't handle it very well, it can barely get above 30 FPS on the standard (lowest), but it's playable. As for the game itself, I tought it was pretty fun but it's meant to play with people you know, alone it doesn't really do much sense, I did the 1st history mission and leveled up fighting to level 6. So after Tuesday, I'll be able to play more if anyone wants to join. My trial ends on Saturday, 4th of July

I'll actually think about doing the 14 day trial as well. Just to see what it's like. What do they charge monthly for the subscription?

In steam they're charging 10€ for the game, but on kinguin they're doing 7.69€ for the game + 30 days.
As for the subscription fee on kinguin 60 days is 18.99€ so arround 9€ per month

Edit: And the adventure beggins:

For 13 days, atleast

GW2 was like that before, now I get bored of it . You pay for it you can play it forever without paying anything else (I got max lvl without the Cash Shop) which is stupidly easy in a weekend you can go from 1 to 80 in WvW (World vs World, meaning lots of players vs lots of players). But I might try the 14 day trial if I don't have to fill any bank related info

I do not own any console D: and I'm really not buying the old gen just for one game. Also are the servers all together? PC + PS3?

I'm pretty sure my PC can't handle. I saw some videos of the game and it really looks fun.

Buuuuut.. the subscription fee is too pricy for me D:, perhaps when I get a job (hopefully next week)

Since I never had a high-end PC, I've always had the dream to get a PC where it could run things at the max smoothly. I don't mind to spend this ammount of money to get something that will last for 4 or 5 years, and upgrading it slowly after that time. I think this will fulfill my needs of "omg luk @ those graphix "
I want to run unreal engine 4 really bad

- Monitors in general: You don't need 2 if you don't plan on using it as a work station for software development. If you want it for multimedia and gaming only, one big monitor would be a better choice. And you can always buy second one later if you change your mind.

- CPU: Ryex already said it. AMD will give you cheaper stuff, but if you want cutting edge, Intel is the way to go. But unless you need it for gaming or something other CPU-intensive (game development or compiling code), you might want to consider an AMD after all. Though, if you are going to run a virtual machine, Intel is far better at that.

- GPU: What Ryex said. AMD are the better choice, NVidia is generally overpriced. Especially with DX12 (and Mantle!), AMD will take over the market. They already power both Xbox One and the PS4. Think about that. But SLI and Crossfire aren't worth it. You'll pay double, but the performance will be increased maybe 40%. I've read an article about that stuff. I can't remember where, but there's tons of other problems as well with SLI/Crossfire.

- HDD/SSD: While an SSD will speed up your booting time insanely, don't get it if you just want it for booting. Or get a small one like 128 GB. e.g. At work I have my OS on a 128 GB together with our project files so compilation is faster and VS boots up much faster than on my home laptop. It's really worth it in this case. I'm also planning to get a 500 GB SSD for my home laptop. I'll put the OS on it together with my projects and my VM (booting it up and shutting it down is often a hassle, especially suspending it since it has to dump all 4 GB of RAM onto the HDD and renders my laptop almost unusable for at least 20 minutes).

Monitors - I plan to do some streaming when I get this PC together so I might end up with the 2 screens, probably not.

CPU - Like you said intel is cutting edge in processor power, and one of the reasons I'm getting this PC is for gaming. I might end up doing software development here but I don't mind waiting a little more time.

GPU - No way I'm getting SLI/CrossFire now, before this post I tought it was worth. Now I realize it isn't.

SSD - I ended up not putting it into the list. So this should cut up the money I spend a fair bit

So I made a rought estimate and it gets for 1621€ approx: $2100. Some parts I had to change since they aren't sold here.
Here's the pic:

Missing the 290x cause it's out of stock, but in this website it sells for 390€

I knew most of those websites already, but all of them are overprice, for the CPU which is $330, it costs here 360€ which is roughly $500/550, which is more than I would like to pay for a CPU.

In my country a 8GB 290x is about 500€ = $750 which is insane. I might need to get an external website to get the parts of. A website that exports to Portugal, I was thinking in amazon but things might be overprice there. Any suggestions of a place to buy all this?

EDIT: I will go with double 1080p monitors I made up my mind on that, so the 4GB one is more than enough, I was kindda scared the 4GB wouldn't keep up with the 3 1080p monitors but with 2 it should have no problem. So the price now should be arround $1650

The 4Gb one is 320€ but I don't want to end up paying 2 for the price of 1, still need to do a lot of research where to buy those.

Also I just noticed your 4 $15 hydrolic bearing case fans? You planning on replacing the ones that come with the case?  Cause you don't need to their good,  real good.

You might want to shop around on the 290x for a better price. That saphire one is on the upper end.  $360 would be closer to its true value.  

Okay so I had no idea the case came with the fans already, that's less 60$.

I picked the saphire one cause it has double the memory than the normal 290x. Don't really know if those 90$ are worth. And I'm considering having a triple display with 3 1080p monitors, but that's highly unlikely I'll do.

Edit: Also I have no idea of the power of the 290x, can it run recent games with V-Sync 60 frames still? With DX12 comming out I'm pretty sure it will, cause it's like 300% of performance boost I don't know for DX11 tought.
Could get it under $1900 without the SSD and I don't see any significant perfomance loss. Nice job ryex

No I'm not, I took it out of the build, I just take it out of the topic aswell. I think I might go for 2x 1080p monitors aswell,, games are smooth in that already.

I updated my post with stuff about your other parts. Take a look. DX12 will be out with Windows 10. but if your building a rig like this you should consider future performance, windows 10 will be out in 6ish months and DX12 games 2-3 months after that so...

I did put watercooling on the CPU, and for the monitors nope, I don't have any 1080p monitors, I've a VGA 900p one that's 7 years old I think, removed the wired adapter tought the motherboard didn't had one.

Again to the monitors I'm quite relutant to get that 144hz one, don't quite know if the difference is very noticeable. I was considering instead of getting that monitor I'd have a 4K monitor but I'm still thinking of what should I do.

As for the CPU, I really think Intel is unbeatable for now in performance and I don't mind speeding $300 on a quad with 4 Ghz
