Its about a year old. Its a nice card.

This is interesting...

I got rid of it. It was slowing down my computer.

 

[webby]

? the menu?? If that's what you're referring to, there are a bunch of places that make the start menu reappear if you will. I've done it for a few people because they were lost in Win8

 

[Dar-Dar]

Yeah, it updated somehow. But for some reason it was making it hard to open or close some apps. I'm already used to not having a start menu. Lol. Most of the programs I use are pinned to the taskbar anyway.

Literally just got done putting this together like 5 mins ago. Not as clean as the one above but I'm still kinda all new to building computers and what not lol

AMD phenom II x4 840 processor. 8 gigs of ram and the graphics card is an amd radeon hd 6850 graphics card, Eh it's pretty nice for some moderate gaming ahah.
