Hah, perhaps I'm going overboard? He's going to playing on a 27inch at 1920 x 1200. He'll be playing all the latest games like Metro, GTA, and StarCraft. Can an $800 rig get that done?

Hmm, perhaps I should go with an AMD 6-core build. They are cheaper than Intels 4-core. Any ideas?

Hey guys, Thank you for the suggestions. He is looking for a computer from about 1k to 1.5k How does this look? I don't know much about Solid State Drives, but someone told me you can install you OS and programs on them and all your files on another HD for maxium performance. Is that true...

Hey guys I'm back again as it seems another one of my friends wants me to help build him a computer (even though I'm no expert). Instead of doing a ton of research I figured you guys would probably already know. He basically wants a rig that will be able to play the latest games on max settings...

Hey guys, Would it be possible to install: CORSAIR DOMINATOR 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model CMP6GX3M3A1600C7 LINK: http://http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145289 and CORSAIR XMS3 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM...

You can get like a 42" LCD TV for cheaper than a 30" LCD monitor. I was just wondering why. For Example: Sony Bravia 40" LCD HDTV: $829.98 Dell Ultrasharp 3007WFP 30" LCD Monitor: $1,049.00 Prices taken from NextTag.com

Hey guys, I was wondering.. why are LCD monitors way more expensive than LCD TVs? Aren't they essentially the same thing?

Hey guys, I've never overclocked anything in my life, but I want to learn how. Does anyone know any good sites for tutorials? I couldn't find any on this site. You guys should write some. Anyway, I have a few questions. 1. Is it possible to overclock an AMD Athlon XP 1900+ 1.46Ghz 2. What...

Awesome! Thank's a lot Rob you are amazzzingg *swoons* :p Anyway, I think I may add the extra GFX card with the left over money and of course buy that new monitor. As for Windows Vista I hear people have a lot of problems with it but I'm guessing it's because they are running it on an older...

I will definitely be using the highest res I can from now on. I'm sure I can get use to it just fine. Thank's for all the help you have given me.

Well the icons being really small is kind of annoying to me that's why I don't use it. Thank's for all the help regarding the monitor. I will pinch out some extra money to buy a new one. As for everything else what do you guys suggest for my budget? I hope I can really build a great gaming...

Doing a little research I found this from another forum: "CSR at a Circuit City store says that it is made by a company in Canada called "Nexx". Said also that the screen itself inside is made by Hitachi." My father got this for me about two years ago I think it was for a Christmas present. It...

Thank's guys I guess I'm living in the prehistoric ages :p. My monitor is a LiquidVideo No: E19LCD1. I don't think it's that old of a monitor but if I have to get a new one then I will just dish out some extra money. BTW, Thank's for all the help. This place is very friendly.

Sorry. Double Post.

I really didn't think resolutions mattered for gameplay. The highest I can get on my monitor is 1280 x 1024 right now. I don't really know how getting higher resolutions work? Do you need a better monitor for higher res and what is Native Res?

Thank's for the welcome! Yes, I can wait until the end of the month I'm not in any paticular hurry. My usual resolution is 1152 x 864 and I want it to be as powerful as it can be for my price range because I plan on having this computer for a long while. As for the last question I'm not sure...

Hey guys, I just wanted to say hello and that I found this website to be very helpful and wanted to know if you could give me some tips on building my first gaming PC. I have helped others build PC's before so I won't be a total noob but I was hoping you guys could help me choose the hardware...
