hello.. just joined cf today and i have a few questions.........

well first off should i build a PC or should or buy one? i realized that when buying a pc u get everything included. for example the computer i was going to buy comes with a 5770 video card. but i was told that the 5850 is what i would want to get to run the games that play. well if i were to buy that and put it into the computer then technically i would have bought to graphics cards.

so please answer me these two questions:

build or buy?

if you said build....... what do i need? in saying this i dont mean give me the brands and the product i mean... can u please give me a list of what i would need to buy for example case video card processor motherboard etc. thank you in advance

You should build. It is cheaper, and you can make the computer better than a storebought one.

EDIT: As for the list:

CPU
Mobo (Motherboard)
HDD (Hard Drive)
RAM
Video Card
Sound Card
PSU (Power Supply)
Monitor
Mouse
Speakers

And of course all of the cords that go with the parts, but they should come with it.
