I am looking at getting a nice gaming pc, like SLI graphics cards, dual core, etc... I like the alienware but think I can do better on price.
What do you recommend getting? or buying from?

Have one made to your specs. Most off the shelf pc's are not suited for gaming. -

I got my last PC at http://www.cyberpowerinc.com , they build some really cool PC's and LaptopsCarbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about thatComment

has nice systems. You pay out the ass though. If you can build one yourself you would be better off.Comment

I would suggest making your own. Its really easy to do and it will save you lots of green.Go waste some time on my new blog, Tasty Fresh Teens!Comment

Try Dell and their new gaming machines.Comment

You might have a hard time getting an SLI system for that little, depending on what parts you want to buy. I think the Geforce 7800 GTX's run around $500 each, so you need two of those. So you are at $1000 just for video cards.Originally posted by xuronComment

i agree. and to add: anyone that buys a Compaq to anything more than check their email, is wasting their money. period. lolOriginally posted by Sosa
for gaming, i'd check out Dells new gaming systems, i just saw their gaming systems & fucked around with them at the store, SWEET fuckin graphics!!!!
if you wanna build your own system, go to newegg.com and shop around.

Find a reputable site that offers custom, generic systems that you can configure to your heart's content. Don't buy from Dell, Sony, HP, whatever. Make sure they have a solid reputation (search on that) as well as configuration options you want.
Fuck alienware, falcon-nw, etc. because you'll pay way too much.
Otherwise, build it yourself.Your post count means nothing.Comment

wow, that is a pretty good deal. I noticed they have the GT cards instead of the GTX's, but I doubt they are worth the added $.Originally posted by xuronComment
