Where do you find super women like this!! Don't get me wrong, I love my wife but she couldn't be less interested in my hardware/gaming addiction if she tried

My girl friend bought me a 260 gtx just as they came out, so it made sli a cheap option for me, since i was gonna buy one my self anyways. She also bought me a antec 1200 case.

More recently she got me 170 quids worth of vouchers for this site, which i bought a new hard drive and ram with, and a few other things.

I also remeber her buying me cod 4 and the orange box on steam when i couldnt afford to buy them.

Good thing is she seems intrested in my hobby, i tell her what everything does, and explain it to her, plus it helps she used to like games growing up. I did build her a good pc with my old parts, consdering she only plays wow and the sims.

My g/f always goes mental if I get PC parts and install them instead of "spending time with her"

It's funny because I got her a decent GPU for her PC and she knows its better because she gets 5.9 in the Vista benchmarking

i just picked one of these up myself, only problem is my cpu is bottlenecking it i think so another upgrade is in order lol.

You could have said it was a driver update and she would probably be none the wiser. Or get bored when you tell her the "in depth" explanation
