I'm going to assume that's all really good?

It's pretty much overkill for a business machine but it would be pretty nice to play games on.

If it wasn't for the NVS 315 cards I would say you have a decent gaming rig.

Yeah they are not the best but there are two of them. :)

32gb of RAM is killing me, my laptops got 12.

I don't know weather to up grade my cpu (17-4700mq, 2.40ghz) or my gpu (GT 750m), what would make my games run better? The cpu I guess.Undecided

Well your CPU processing instructions from the programs in this case your games and the Windows Operating System and your GPU handles the graphics allowing you to optimize the visuals. It depends where you are lacking.

Very nice.... I doubt you'll ever need 32 gb of RAM haha, that's insane. I only have 12.

 Nice to see you stepping up in the world. That graphics card might give you a few issues with some modern games though, but as long as you got the rest right you should be sweet. CPU > GPU any day of the week.

Bill Gates once said that no one would ever be able to fill a 20 Meg. hard drive. :)

If only it were mine. It belongs to my work.

Not on this PC. The School Board blocks Steam.

the space you have for your mouse looks about the same size as the space I have for mine.

Thinking about putting my tower on the floor to give me more room.

thats a good idea. I just moved mine into some weird-ish angle to allow more space.

Those are some crazy numbers. I thought about building a "decent" gaming PC recently until I saw the price. I'll just stick to my repurposed PC laptop for now and fill it with all my old PC games.

Hot dang! 32 gigs of RAM?? Man...and it thought I was somebody special getting 8 GB with my system in January! My last system only had 1 GB, I think.  It's a big jump for me. Stop laughing.  LOL.

8 works for most applications, 12 or 16 is really good but 32 is loaded for bear. I guess the school board is trying to get as much as they can for their budget.

I have to ask, and I'm sre you might've said somethinb before but what kind of work requires you to have such a beast of a PC rig. I'd want to have soemthing like that myself.

Web site and electronic forms design at the moment. I normally use that machine for testing though. I'm on my laptop 90% of the time.
