[H] -OT- Wayne Johnson
I got this from Wayne yesterday, and I thought I'd pass it on, as he is a long time member of the collective. T I'm scheduled to have surgery the 2nd week of Aug. [Exact date time to be determined] Part of it is to repair where they messed up my right leg when placing the 1st cardiac stint 3½ yrs ago the other part is to place a stint in the artery just above the left kidney that will save the kidney hopefully lower my BP an appreciable amount.. I'll be going to a better hospital w/ a better Cardiologist in Columbus, OH. If all goes well I'll go in one day have the surgery then they'll release me the next day. In the mean time I've got to try keep my BP below critical which it hasn't been for a long time. Last week at the family Dr. it was 264/122 I thought I was done for but stopped some medications seemed to help. At least this week by BP was down to 228/128 so that's a little better Now all I have to do is to keep up the good work w/ the help of my dear wife who recently became a CMA [Certified Medical Assistant] who graduated 2nd in her class Nationally was only in the 99 percentile. vbg Now if she could find a job in the middle of this corn field. Thanks for all your positive thoughts, prayers wishes --+-- Wayne Viki Johnson Ashland, OH, USA 44805 http://users.zoominternet.net/~wdjvmj/

Re: [H] new system build suggestions or upgrade
Thanks for the reply. Is an AMD rig a better bang for the buck? I used to be a lot more up on the hardware. I used to have a computer business where I did a lot of system building. I was forced to close it when I suffered my traumatic brain injury. So I don't have the distribution channels I used to have. Which sucks right now. So now I am trying to play catch up on the latest hardware. Come on people I need more suggestions. I value your opinions.

I have an Nvidia GTX 285 video card that is pretty nice. Although the latest 4xx series probably blows it away at the same price. I am running Win 7 Ultimate 64 with 6GB RAM. I am planning on upping the RAM to 12GB soon.

If I were to piece something up. What is the preferences on MB, CPU, Video, etc. Today? I currently have a core 2 Duo E6300 @1.86 on an Asus P5Q Deluxe, 4GB DDR2 and a Radeon 1600 vid. I know its dinosaur crap from around 2007 before my brain injury. I am recovered enough to start playing some games again, etc. Should I upgrade the proc, and vid on my existing setup which is running fine, or ditch it and start new again. If I start over what is the collectives recommendations? Price and performance are important here. I do some gaming, and video stuff etc. -Anthony aka Tony
