Hopefully and I mean hopefully you are going to build one through newegg, tigerdirect, or pricewatch. Here's the kicker before you build a pc. I had a discussion with a friend of about this the other day. Couple of need to knows: 1. AMD is a great gaming CPU but if you're going to burn DVDs or need somthing that will break down files/coding better. Go with Intel. 2. ATi graphics drivers are a little buggy right now (cuz mine Graphics was crashing ever since WIN 7 even tho I've been running XP when it happens with the updated drivers from the site). So go with an Nvidia card. Gigabyte has a good GTX 260 out now and it's around $200. Also I would go with Gigabyte as a motherboard as well, DON'T Go with Foxconn or EVGA. Issues, Issues, Issues. _________________ Don't buy a computer, BUILD IT YOURSELF! |

Fuck yeah, EVGA is awesome.
I got my case today, the thing is a sexy beast. Also, it's a completely tool less install. The rest of my shit comes tomorrow...only thing I need is to see if my graphics card is dead and then decide on a new one if needed. _________________
