New Computer

I recently got a new computer.  My old computer was having lots of problems.  Sometimes the computer would freeze at random times and it would run very slow at other times.  The worst was when I tried to restart my computer, Windows 7 wouldn't load for me.  I tried to run a disk scan to try to repair the Windows but that didn't work.  I even tried to start the Windows from an earlier check point but that didn't work either.  I had to dig out my very, very old computer, which I am very surprised that it even works still.  I ended up buying a computer from Cyberpower PC (details on the spec later).  My last ditch effort to repairing my old computer was to install Windows 7 all over again.  This time it managed to fix itself.  I didn't lose any of my previous files but I ended up losing all my programs.  Right now I am just running the barest amount of programs to run my games and my internet.  I don't know how long this computer will last but right now it seems to be working just fine.  I am having no hiccups, no freezing so everything seems to be good. 

As for my new computer, I haven't really used it yet.  I ended up paying lots for my computer but I think it was time to buy a new one anyways.  The following is the specs of my new computer:
  • CPU - Intel Core I5-6600K 3.5Ghz 6MB Intel Smart Cache
  • Hard Drive - 1TB HDD 3.5 SATAIII
  • Video Card - AMD Radeon RX 460 2GB
  • Power Supply - 600 Watt Power Supply
  •  Motherboard - Gigabyte G1 Sniper Z170 SLI
  • Memory - 4GB DDR4-3000 memory 
The new computer also came with a mechanical keyboard (my first mechanical keyboard) and an optical mouse.  The computer has Windows 10 and a very nice computer case.  My old computer also happens to be a Cyberpower computer and I am pretty sure this new computer will end up working well for me as well.  I bought my old computer around 5 years ago (I think) before Diablo 3 came out.  I wanted to be able to play Diablo 3 when I bought my old computer and it is good that I bought a new computer since there might be a new Diablo game coming out soon.

Diablo 3 Season 7 is ending next week so hopefully there will a blog post next week as to what I accomplished during Season 7.  BlizzCon is less than a month away and I am really excited about what Blizzard will be doing for BlizzCon.  There hasn't been much news about BlizzCon yet but the early BlizzCon online sale has lots of nice items up for sale.
