Can anyone tell me if there is a noticeably difference between these computers? If there is then I would rather buy the more expensive one.

Thanks.

well obviously, the top one performs better than the bottom...

but it really depends what you're doin...

what vid card are u looking at?

a good vid card with either of those builds would produce great visuals for gameplay.... but i guess if you're graphics designing or something, lol, go with the top.
 
The first rig will have a better overclocking potential (but then again, since you're asking this, you probably wont be overclocking all that much so really, go for the cheaper of the two, the difference in clock speed isnt all that much)
 
Thank You for Your fast and WONDERFUL replies. I have a 6600GT and a X800XL, probably will use the X800XL.
And one thing, I will not overclock my system.

I need a few more support for the builds.


THANKS!
 
I still think that Comp 1 is worth the extra price.

You are getting a faster hard drive, 16MB Cache vs. 8MB.

The RAM is definitely nicer, it has high end OCZ RAM vs. Mushkin and the OCZ is faster.

You are also getting, what I would think is a more reliable motherboard even if you are not overclocking.

And obviously a better processor.
 
lol. i am building them. and i have an x800xl anymore suggestions?
i am going to buy it soon.

Thanks abundance.
