You or your avatar?:DIt gives me much sexual excitement.
And yea, switch that GPU out with an ASUS or Sapphire variant.
Memory is easy to find on the cheap, even from name brand companies, and with good performance. Here's some advice: always get name brand memory. NEVER, EVER buy the crappy stuff.

G500 IMO is better, but G9x is perfectly ok. Read reviews and try it out in a store before you buy it is my advice. G19 is awesome, but the G15, if you can find it, is cheaper and gets the job done. Get the Turtle Beach X11 over that Logitech crap, you'll probably like it more.RealTricks wrote: »Thanks PROACE. I knew that, my dad had told me, so thanks for the advice. santa! I like the iBUYPOWER Computer (The one I spoke of), so I will probably buy it and yeah. :] Oh and do u guys think the G9x and G19 and G930 are good? anyone use it?
DIY systems are awesome BTW. But if you don't want the liability or trouble of building one, iBuyPower isn't too shabby.;)
Santa will see you in a few months for a personal visit.

Cool. The thing is, I like Logitech, I've been using them and Gateway for the last 6 years (since i was 9 ^^) And i really like them. DIY i think would be fun to build, because my dad has built one (It is so old it has an AMD Athlon X2 1800+) and he really like it and told me he would build it with me. I'll check out the Turtle beach thing too. I probably will go with the iBuyPower though, since it is cheaper.
Edit: Eh I like the Logitech headphones a little bit better, just because I think they look nicer and they are wireless :]] Oh add me on xFire, tricks222, I'll add you back later :]]
I think I'll go with Logitech :]] -

It's nice, although a i5/i7 Quad Core would perform better.
Powercolor isnt that great, the second build looks better imo.
Cooler master has some great cases as well.
1000w imo is a little overkill, but it looks great. -

Yeah, the 1k PSU is a little over kill, considering i only need like 750 watts, but it comes almost 100 bucks off, and i could always upgrade I Rather do the second build, but it's just so much more expensive. And yeah, I really am not fond of PowerColor, so I'll probably just change it out with a Sapphire card. Also, I'm not really a fan of Intel, all the computers in my house are AMD, so I'm one of their fan boys! And I rather have 4 Physical Cores then 2 Physical and 2 Logical. -

Hehe yeah AMD doesn't have bad processors, just the i5/i7 from what I've heard performs better.
Going to be running an AMD CPU soon as well, (don't got enough money a build like yours but for it should run most games today, never used a tri core before rated @ 3.0 GHz, going to OC it as well, along with a radeon hd 5770.)
750W, even a 650W would be fine unless you're looking to run a more power hungry card, or even dual soon.
Save the money for vidya games!
Nice build none the less :d -
I'm not sure i would OC past 3.8 Ghz. And I saw that, but the other one is nicer in my opinion.The sounds quality and the mic and in-game sound adjustment owns the Logitech headset, just saying.
You'd be better off building a DIY then getting an iBuyPower, unless you get a custom built one with a two-three year warranty.
Respectfully,
PROACEX1
I'm thinking I'll just make a cheaper DIY, and if it's good, Ill be happy, If i cant, Ill buy an iBuyPower. The warranty is one year, and i might add the extended one warrant6y if i cant get it. And do you like the darkfleet case? I think it's amazing :]With 1700 $ i can get a better pc. Way better. I spend around 500 euros on my pc. And it's close to yours.
Cool story bro, I dont really care.FF8_Squall wrote: »You can get better for the price. Nuff said.

Hope you like AMD :] I don't really like the prices on Intel, they are hella pricey. I might try them on my next rig though. And i might go to Intel on my next rig.
