With those, the total cost is about $50 higher, but it does come with a $60 game that I was planning on getting. So yea ill be fine with getting it.
This is basically the max I can go, and I assume there isn't any other possible cut cost options :)
So I have been looking to build my little brothers computer for Christmas. He already has....

well how much does it out perform a 6870? I see an XFX 7850 for $5 dollars more after rebate. Worth not getting the two free games over the 6870?
because like I have posted, this is a budget build and 129$ after rebate for a 6870 seems really good
So I am moving out in a week and taking my computer with me. My little brother loves playing WoW as well as other games on the PC. (Especially FPS').
So for his Christmas + Bday money he wants to get a computer for himself that will serve his gaming needs.
I made a post about a month and a...
cool, thanks. Yea I just want to start a little early to make sure I make the right decisions and get an idea on what I am looking for. I havn't been keeping my eye on the new hardware over the past 2 years since I upgraded my current rig.
Nearly the same price and with the OS + cd drive. I like it!
Thanks for that, This wont be ordered till around early december so I will def keep an eye on these. If that CPU/MB deal isn't still up by then I will look for something similar.
I am sure he will get into PC FPS so a computer...
ah yea forgot about windows, will def pick up W7 for him.
Had to google what a microcenter is. I live in mid cali. The closest 1 seems to be a good 5 hours away(orange county). So i would say I don't live near :)
Now this is what I came up with within 20 minutes, so I am sure there are a lot of flaws, but im looking into something like this, hopefully a little cheaper.

Yea a new gpu seems like the way to go. Wow is a CPU dependent game so it won't need to be incredible.
How much wattage of a Psu would u think is needed. 450ish?
When I get to a desktop I'll probably make a list of parts and would love for some feedback. Whatever I can save would be great just...
Hi,
I am moving out of my dad's home and onto my own in the next month. My little brother shares a room and he loves playing WoW on my computer. Now that I am moving out I feel terrible for taking the only computer (mine) that can support it. He is really young and wants to buy his own with...
Thanks for the suggestions, but I didn't want to find improvements.... I wanted to find out which you would prefer has the most power/bang for your buck. I am not buying these....
Please take into consideration of price difference, and SSD speeds not a priority. Thanks!

My monitor takes has a VGA connector so if I grab another DVI/mini display port I would have to do vga -> dvi -> mini display :P.
So would this vga -> mini display port work?

I ordered a dvi -> mini display port adapter off of new egg, but it doesnt seem to fit together. (although I am using a xfx vga to dvi connector as well).
Dont ask why I didnt go straight to a vga -> mini display port.
I am really paranoid about this, so could anyone guide me to adapter that I...
