hey, i was thinking about buying a alienware's aurora 7500... however, another thought came into my mind, i could also customize a comp. However, i am not very good at doing that so would any1 of you mind customizing me a computer that is $3200 tax included (canadian $$)

thank you..

p.s. the computer needs speed, performance and games!!

ill make you a set up, only cuz im bored

ill edit it in when im done

Edit: here it is

- AMD Athlon 64 FX60 Toledo 2000MHz HT Socket 939 Dual Core - $813.99

- CORSAIR 2GB (2 x 1GB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 550 (PC 4400) - $296.00

- Antec NeoHE 430 ATX12V 430W Power Supply - Retail - $85.75

- eVGA 256-P2-N563-AX Geforce 7900GT CO 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail - $269.99

- eVGA 256-P2-N563-AX Geforce 7900GT CO 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail - $269.99

- DFI LANPARTY nF4 SLI-DR Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail - $186.99

- Western Digital Caviar SE WD2000JS 200GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM - $74.99

- Western Digital Raptor WD740GD 74GB 10,000 RPM Serial ATA150 Hard Drive - OEM - $159.99

- NEC 16X DVD±R DVD Burner Black IDE/ATAPI Model ND-3550A - OEM - $34.99

TOTAL = $2,217.43

I did this very fast, and looking at the total you might wanna switch out the proc and mobo for the AM2 socket, get better vid cards, and what not.....wait till someone else comes and they can edit mine and fix it up a bit

Edit: also you might wanna switch out that PSU with a better one, b/c i pick that out first before everything else and it looks kinda weak with that system

That's about $2850 USD.

Would you be willing to wait for Conroe or do you want an AMD build?

DaShit · Jun 26, 2006

aww $hit, just noticed you said canada, i dont think newegg ships there, lookup those same parts on tigerdirect.com

i would go with something like way2evil's recommended build, it looks very good for a little over 2 grand.

Buying a $800 CPU at this point might not be a great idea, Intels new chip is close to release and will perform better at 50% of the price.

Thank you very much.... I like all ur builds, especially way2evil's build.
However, its a present.. and my auntie wants to spend 3.2k canadian.. mayb you could modify the parts? i want to have a good use of my 3.2k!lol
i havent been following up on computers due to busy school and stuff, so i dont know the new tech.

anywayz.. way2evil, maybe you could give me a more expensive build?

way2evil · Jun 27, 2006

sure can for an extra 1,100 i can get you a new vid card and water cooling and i have to see what else. definatley a better psu. i will edit when done
