Title: Need new comp! Post by: Armonde on August 19, 2009, 02:05:09 PM The last time I built my own PC was back when pentium 4 was teh hotness, so I'm like 900 years out of date.
Is this worth a crap, or should I keep shopping or reconsider building one on my own. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229110 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229110) Title: Re: Need new comp! Post by: Hawkes on August 19, 2009, 02:30:42 PM Personally, I like to know what components are in my machine and I can't seem to find out where they list that. TigerDirect has a 1gb machine that I just got an email on.... link here....

I just bought some components from TigerDirect for my new build and I actually found the prices to be cheaper than Newegg for exactly the same thing and also saved over $20 on the shipping too. Personally, I always look around because when I was selling on the net I found that Newegg could be beat if you shopped a few sites. Title: Re: Need new comp! Post by: JesterDTM on August 19, 2009, 02:32:33 PM that actually seems to be allright. I actually own a cyberpowerpc that I got from www.cyberpowerpc.com Check out their website for more options.

Title: Re: Need new comp! Post by: Snackcakes on August 19, 2009, 03:15:03 PM honestly, these days i'd just buy a computer. spec'ing out parts and building one isn't going to save you that much money. and its just a big hassle. dell has some great deals on their refurbished machines. my 2 cents.

Title: Re: Need new comp! Post by: Stallionite on August 19, 2009, 11:13:21 PM I bought a cheap dell ($400) and then added some RAM and a video card AND upgraded a power supply....so total about 550.
