I heard Philo died. Will he be updating this thread?

I'm going to write some kind of automated program that will countine to post here on my behalf after I die.

In fact, we all should set one up. 1000 years from now, we'll all still be posting here, long after we have all died.

I think you are severely underestimating how long most of us will last. Half the forum is so pickled in alcohol that it'll be 1000 years before enough blood gets through to start the processes of bodily decay. And the other half are, like, negative 50 years old.

Let us retract the foreskin of ignorance and apply the wirebrush of enlightenment.

Yeah, an update would be great. I always use this thread.

Trying to figure out graphics cards is too hard for my brain to handle on its own.
7850 for midrange and 670/680 for higher end.

Seems that way, or he's lost deep in the jungles of the Amazon where reception, even in this day and age is nonexistent, 'cause I'm still waiting to see if he got my payment for his 7970 >.<

Ok what is the best bang for buck setup that you can make for $2K

Will be for gaming majority from MMO to Dota to FPS.

SSD not necessary but if they are well worth it then add it in.

Use the extra 150$ to put into a better GPU/CPU/Mobo/HDD/SSD/Whatever else there is.
Highly suggest the 7850 as it can be OCed to 7950 speeds or if you're in camp green the 670 would be another decent choice.
The motherboard can be changed if you don't mind Gigabyte and/or one with less features
SSDs aren't nessacry and you might want to wait for them to drop in price, the WD Blacks are still pretty fast with Windows 8
If you have a decent set of headphones and/or speakers a sound card such as the Asus DG or DS is recommended
