Ok, anways i have 2 builds a dual core build and a regular build. the prices are aprox because i just included the most needed parts. Now if i want to buy the regular system i can buy the parts now, but if i want to buy the Dual core i'll need to get some money first so it might take a month or two since i dont have a job right now(stupid school)... anyways I was wondering what i should do? which one to choose? should i wait and get the dual core or get the other build.
If anyone has any changes to propose that will improve any of the systems, or something that is bad in the build change it. I Cant buy from newegg so dont say its cheaper there, i know it is but they dont deliver to Canada...
