Ok so here is the Deal i want to buy a new computer online.Why online do you ask? because i don't have to time to go and pick one out from the store.What i wanna know is what is the best place online to buy one from that will also ship it out to me.ALSO! if anyone has any suggestions on wich PC to buy then please let me know i'll only want to go lil over 1 thousand bucks so cheaper works lol but i want a good one
Ps:Desktop Pc
Sony, HP, and Dell all ship but why don't you just build one?
i heard newegg.com is pretty good
Yeah i would build one thats what i want to do but i don't have the time If there is a place that does it for you then thats great
Build one. They always come out cheaper and more efficient. And you don't always get robbed of memory because the company was too cheap to add a real unintegrated peice of shit to your hardware.
It takes like 20min to find all the parts on newegg.com and maybe 1 hour building it/getting everything working.
Hmmmm how bout the XPS 720 H2C from dell?
I heard that had overheating problems. I don't know, maybe it's better now.Quote:

The e8400 they should still have in stock. 199. online its 240+, and just about everywhere its out of stock. So.. once again you can save 40+ bucks.
Now you might spend 40 bucks on the mobo extra than newegg, but then your still at the same pricing overall. They also run specials on the 8800GT Evga which gives lifetime warrenty, a 90 day stepup program, and allow you to mod your 8800GT with a 3rd party HS/F without voiding the warrenty.
Try for this..
e8400
Gigabyte or Asus p35 LGA 775. They will make sure it works.
8800GT
2 or 4 gigs of Corsair XMS2 is good for non overclocker
Once you get there, and see if there is any new store sales in addition to their franchise wide ones, you will know what you should get.
Good luck!

maybe you're the type of person who tricks out their dodge neon and lowers it to the ground and adds ground effects and nos stickers because it looks cool?
to the end user it doesn't matter, both computers will be screaming fast and excellent for gaming.
yeah the case isn't flashy, but he could buy some LED and neon lights and add them on. if he wanted with the $500 he saves. in fact, he could buy 2 of the computers i posted instead of buying 1 of the one that you like. :p
and yeah the video card isn't as good but he could shell out anywhere from $20 to $200 and get a decent video card. i've seen geforce 8800s go for $250 nowadays.
That vcore 1.5 with or without the vdrop in windows? heheQuote:

What is your vcore at 3.6?
My system. Still working on the wiring and putting in some yate loons soon

I take it your comparing a C2D against a "BLACK EDITION" 5600+ AMD. For gaming, your c2d will be superior. You want the information as to why, it will get winded, and rather technical.Quote:

The one she might be getting is a quad core btw.
