A setback in getting new hardware

*sigh* I saw gop on today, and asked him about this thing I saw on [H]ard|Forum.com about picking out the PSU for you. What to look for. I didn’t understand one damn thing on that page.
He looked at them and said that these pages are outdated. So I asked him “Where do I go to look around”, and he acts like he’s tired of me asking questions, and wants me to make my own decisions…

Now if I saw somebody else doing this, I would probably say to him; “It’s not that hard. Just look around in Google for something”… yet, this is happening to me. I cannot make these decisions. I fail at making decisions! The only good decisions I ever made was in games. Never hardware.
I wouldn’t know the first damn thing to look for, let alone know how much I’m willing to spend for it. I would also have to know how old it is, and… god damn what the fuck did I get myself into?!?!

I WISH I NEVER GOT MY HARDWARE UPGRADED!!! Then I wouldn’t be in this fucking mess!! Even the graphic glitching wasn’t as bad as this lock up issue! With the graphic glitching, all I had to do was just, minimize, and maximize it. And it’s fixed!
This… this can’t be temp fixed.. or any kind of fixed. Infact, it’ll never BE fixed!!!

“So why not just save up to get a new computer?”. It’s not as easy as it sounds. No one cares how much suffering I’m going though, not being able to play my games, without fear of it locking up on me. And I have to go through this, day after day, month after month.
And getting a hobby is out of the question! So is getting a job.
Do you know how long it’s been since I played WoW? I’ve even tried to convince myself of the progress I’ve made, with this lock up issue. How I didn’t let it stop me. And now I am, and I don’t know why.

*deep sigh* All I can do is wait ’till tomorrow, and call “Bob” (I call him that instead of ‘the guy that built my computer’) and ask him, how come he hasn’t responded to my emails. And I gotta do this in a nice way too.
“Bob” is the only hope I got now. If he can’t help me… I’m SOL(Shit Outa Luck). But I’m pretty sure he can. Maybe he forgot that I did send them.

And I do have another option. Not a good one, but an option nonetheless. Asking Facepunch on how can I compare hardware that would be dumbed down to my low IQ (90-92 is my IQ) so I can understand it and make my own decisions.
Even if it was to get a book called “Hardware Comparing for Dummies”, I’d read it.

I guess the main thing is I keep thinking what caused this damn thing to happen in the first place, instead of looking into the future and finding something that not only would fix my issue, but I would keep for a long time.
I keep thinking the only reason I’m buying this shit is to fix my issue. When it’s much more than that. It can also be to get better graphics. Faster gameplay. And a more reliable system.
At least replacing my Video Card will definitely fix one issue. It will allow me to dual-client again in WoW.

And the only reason I’m replacing my PSU is to get a respectable name brand one, like Enermax, or Antec.
