[wolfesteinabhi]

Prowl away!!! ..good luck!

 

[Chesterr]

I feel like Prowl needs the upgrade the most. As a C2D and DDR2 user myself I fell his pain

 

[kelvin1896]

If my pc was selected for the 5 of the week, would I be able to vote on it as well?

 

[PixyRi]

Voted for Francesca
As someone who also switched to a pc from a console I know how hard it can be. Good luck to all contestants!

I think that building a pc with seccond hand parts its good due to better hardware with less price.

I'm still rocking a Core 2 Duo E6500 in my Gateway Lol!

I hear ya. I have a Dell Inspiron XPS 410 I got for cheap recently with a Core 2 Duo E6300 that I upgraded to a Q6600 with the BSEL mod for use as a cheap Linux machine. It actually does okay with a GT 650 in Valve titles (HL2, TF2, CS:GO) and Borderlands 2 on Ubuntu MATE 16.04.2 and the proprietary Nvidia drivers. I tested it in Windows 10 with some World of Warships, and I was seeing occasional CPU bottlenecks. YMMV.

[Zelement]

I like the way that Joshua salvages old parts and gets some use out of them.

 

[ThumpSpartan]

Let's give 'That Guy' some new parts for a change. My vote goes to Joshua

"Tiny Purple Pixel Eater" won my vote with its look. I love how simple, yet awesome this small thing looks.

 

[PaulOfBrno]

Good luck everyone! Tough vote once again.

 

[Simon92]

Josh got my vote, GL!

 

[lamomet]

Prowl all the way! Joshua is clearly a PC enthusiast because of the clean inside of the case (y)

 

[glic83]

Great season so far, looking forward to the season finale

 

[nexx1]

Purple pixle eater, nice one

 

[PoppaSteve]

Joshua gets my vote--although my wife's pc is still rocking a Q6600. It's still serviceable, but she doesn't play any games on it. And Steve is right; those are some great photos.

 

[suspense]

Jamie's PC. Come on man. Give it a good dusting. I would've voted for you but that dust will kill anyone.

 

[Joshua Jones]

Good luck everyone (y)

 

[Crazzgamer2222]

Good luck everyone

 

[Steffen Jensen]

Good luck too all PC's

 

[Rytlock]

Good luck to all.
