Well, holmes you need to buy yourself xbox 360 man. That's what the coolest of them all got. So we could do 72hour ufc undisputed marathons

Been really busy with school today, tomorrow predicts the same shit but different day.

As for the PC spec topic, I'm running:

GTX 570
i5-2500k
8GB RAM

I'm using a 23.6 inch widescreen 3D monitor that runs at 120hz, 1920X1080 resolution. I can play anything out today and anything coming out in the foreseeable future at max settings with DX11 and my system doesn't even have a slight bit of lag.

I bought this system like 6 months ago or something, and it's just... so worth the money if you are into gaming.

You might could go with a good 40 lb trolling motor on a bass hound. Its not aluminium but it's a solid lil 2 seater. And unless you are in a huge lake will plenty

I will probably be taking multiple (3) people with me out on the lake sometimes, so I need something large enough for small/medium trips for 2-3 guys plus equipment weight, and then something small enough that I feel comfortable and suitable alone, and I feel a 12 foot aluminum with a 6-10 (probably 10ish) motor suits it well.

From all the sources I've read, realistically you can put about 500lbs of weight on one of these without complications, which is perfect for what I'm looking for.

Oh ok yeah then you should really go with at least a 12 footer maybe a lil bigger. Make sure you check the boat for what motor it is rated for, max people and weight. Like you said you need something that can handle the people and the weight. Not to mention it could get ya a ticket.

I have the same exact setup, definitely recommended.

look into the ASUS Gamers Republic laptops. they arent cheap, but they arent stupid expensive either like Alienware. i got mine over a year ago for $1600, has a 17.3" LED screen, 1.73ghz (2.93 turbo boost), 8gb RAM, 1tb hdd space, GTX460m with 1.5gb RAM and Blu-Ray w/HDMI out. they have newer ones cheaper, also 15.6" laptops. as i said, they arent cheap, but they do pack alot into their laptops. Every game ive gotten so far has no problem running things at max on it, stays cool and quiet too. not the most portable, but a great great performer geared towards gaming. if you register it right away too they extend the warranty to 2 years with accident coverage from ASUS, but knock on wood, i havent needed to use their support yet at all.

Congratulations my friend. Today is a good day. I am just about to wake up the love of my life and wish her happy birthday.
