Put the extra cash into more HDD space, if it's for gaming it'll probably be needed.

That's a pretty ignorant statement. A lot of people are perfectly content on spending a third of the money on an AMD counterpart, while usually not sacrificing much in the way of performance.

By your smart ass comment, obviously you knew what he meant.
I'd hold off on that buy to be honest. You could save a little more and build something more powerful, and that will have a little longevity attached to it. |

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the helpful comments. My price range is around $600 max, only game I really play on pc is Call of Duty UO, which is pretty old and wouldn't take too powerful of a machine.

Sorry for the double post, but I just wanted to say thanks to Whippy for all of that info at newegg, it will be very useful. But 1 question, Shike mentioned the case and psu combo, is there any good ones you can recommend? That'd help with price...cause I need to buy a OS also.

Absolutely not. You could build something a lot better for that price.

Glad I posted here...cause I was considering it. But I'd rather build one from the ground up anyways.
