Thanks for the revival.

Where did you get that computer? I might have to pick one up. And for gaming.. for ten times the price... You bet your ass I can make it out perform that.

I never recommend AMD (for builders). They are fine if you buy a computer with 1 in it... I just hate the socket so much, that I will never buy/recommend one. (until they change it) They lack a lock down mechanism and I have actually had a processor get pulled out when trying to remove a...

If you were to build one, I suggest you buy a new case. It will have USB 3.0 ports at the front, nicer internals (for cable routing), and ofc it's new and shiny. You will only really be set back $50 for a decent case anyway. Of course if you wanted to save that $50 and put it toward upgrading...

Messing up a part of the computer is pretty difficult. You either have to shock it (static electricity), or drop/bend/snap it. They have spent lots of time standardizing most things. Trust me, if you have any experience building ANYTHING, it's simple. I took a look at cyberpowerpc, ibuypower...

I took a look at the XPS 8700 from Dell and I think that's pretty decent. I would like to see a bit better of a graphics card, but of course that's the last thing they upgrade on these computers. Building a computer is really simple IMO. The hardest part is trusting yourself. There are of...

Sure the i5 and i7s are nice, we all know that. But I gotta say the i3 4130 I am using works really well. Although it's only dual core, it has hyper threading. (each core acts as 2) So applications that use multiple cores will still get a boost. I have to stress it, buying one prebuilt will be...

If you have the time to do a bit of research I HIGHLY suggest you build one yourself. You will probably get a system that's much more capable. Take a look at the $662 range on this site http://www.logicalincrements.com/ That will be a much better computer for gaming, and really for anything. Of...

Yeah I have built a ton of computers and tend to keep up with what's new and shiny. It's really a simple thing to do once you get past the nerves. What are you building?
