I havent been following...but

It sounds like youre buying from someone else?
Have you considered building? Its cheaper (in most cases).

(i guess youve probably been asked this before)
 
all in all it looks a nice rig, but its up to you if you wanna pay someone else to build it or pay less and build yourself

for that price i would have expected ram to be over 800mhz!!
 
no i didnt say he "needs" it!!

-just with the rest of the spec and the price i would have expected it!!!

i know that there isnt much difference in 800mhz + 1066mhz but if i buy a top end rig i want top end componants especialy at $2000.

My thoughts exactly!
 
its in everyones interest to make sure that you get good value for your money!

sometimes all it takes is a bit stuburness in the shop or on the phone, its better when you go in the shop and you say you want something different or extra and your waving the cash infront of there faces!
 
lolz you dont need faster ram if you got 8 gigs of the stuff

I feel like I just got my IQ lowered... YOU DON'T NEED 8 gigs of ram... 8 gigs of ram is not going to make anything faster, of course you need faster ram... it makes things faster... not that any normal user would notice, but you would notice alot more then just having "more" ram...

Most games these days and I dare say many programs cannot utilize 8GB of RAM. But there is always the future to look onto. Though I personally would opt for 4GB of higher quality ram to later on buy another 4GB

Also there has been big talk about extended warranty and generally it is said that they are a bad thing. I guess most likely you will expect a 1year warranty with your provider and if nothing goes wrong within that year obviously your computer is running correct. And computer components are made to at live until the end of there extended warranty's
