Who's upgrading their system for the ARR (Beta or Release) (Specs?)

[IronSoup]

I'm sure system requirements aren't going to be released any time soon (and if they are anyone wish to point us to a link cuase I like being wrong when it comes to these things)

My Current Specs

OS Name: Microsoft Windows 8 Pro with Media Center
Processor: Intel(R) i7 CPU 950 @ 3.07GHz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
Installed Physical Memory (RAM): 24.0 GB
Graphic Card Name: ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series ATI Radeon 5750

I'll be going to a
ATI Radeon 7750 in March.

What do you have, and are you planning an upgrade any time soon? if so what are you planning?

Changed my system during the 1.19 patch and since the requirements will be down from version 1.0, I'm perfectly allright with my current system.

Tech talk!

CPU: AMD Phenom X4 965
RAM: 6GB but I think I'm going to upgrade
GPU: 7970

Here's the thing I play on eyefinity (3 screens) so I was wondering if anyone else could share their eyefinity setups? Is it supported in ARR? Will crossfire be supported in ARR fullscreen mode? I doubt anyone has these answers yet but if SE happens to see this...

Just built a new rig since my 3 year old Asus G60 laptop was starting to show its age and I don't travel nearly as much anymore.

MB: Intel DZ77GAL-70K
CPU: i7 3770K, cooled by Corsair H100i
GPU: EVGA GTX 670 w/ 4GB GDDR5 VRAM
RAM: 16GB (4x 4GB) Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz DDR3
SSD: Crucial M4 256GB
HDD: Seagate 1.5TB 7200 RPM

So far my system stands as;

Intel i5 2500k @ 3.3Ghz
8GB Corsair 1333MHZ DDR3
60GB OCZ Agility 3
Gigabyte Nvidia GTX 680 OC Windforce X3 2GB GDDR5

However I purchased this most of these parts for doing video/audio/graphics editing, it'll be beastly for ARR.

Didn't bother with an i7, didnt see the point in the extra £100 for hyperthreading...

2 550 ti sli
16 gb of ram

I will upgrade my hd to an ssd hd soon so I think that will do it but if I need to I'll upgrade my gpu again

I was going to wait for the benchmark before i decided to put together a build. I'm cheap so I'll prob only spend 1-2k.

my current build is from '11
windows 7
core i7 2600s
8gb ram
gtx460
etc stuffs

I think i only spent $800 on it. was going to do some upgrades later but it played 1.0 decent enough to never cause me any problems. Outside of ffxiv i usually only use it for an emulator (ps1/ps2 mostly), although it had no problems playing the new assassins creed, but i did.

My ex was huge into building computer so he helped me a bit with a limited budget I had back then.
But yeah it's a good 5 or more years old now. It does work OKAY. I can play Skyrim, FFXIV, Sims 3, and other graphics intensive stuff. The biggest problem is that sometimes my computer will randomly shut down while playing games.
With FFXIV it only shut down when I tried to have my browser open at the same time though.
I'm assuming that's from overheating?

I'd love some info if it's not too much trouble. My dad who has offered to buy me a new computer just says he'd buy me a prebuilt one but yeah, I have heard it's better to build your own. I just have NO idea where to start.

building is easy, for first time builders i just recomend a paper and pencil, a philips screwdriver and a grounding thingy =P
Anyways.. Atzenx@hotmail.com. send me an email with your budget and we can go from there.

and yea your system is shutting down because of overheating and from what u said it sounds like your processor

1-2k is cheap?? O.o man the stuff i could build with 2k!!
