What’s that game that makes you stare at your PC or console and think, yeah… it’s time for an upgrade. Or the one that actually pushed you over the edge and made you do it? (piefed.social)

Crysis! I built my first high end desktop when it was coming out. Athlon 64x2 4400+, 4GB RAM, 2x7900GT in SLI.

Raptor main drive, 320GB secondary drive. Cost me about 2.5kUSD. Played Crysis just about the best a computer could.

I have a 256gb raptor from that era that is somehow still working fine. I use it as a steam library drive.
