ok so i was going to get a laptop but i have decided that i don't want to spend all that extra money and get not as goo das specs. so i need your help i want to get a new desk top. i pretty much need everything. i have about a littl eover 1000 dollars to spend. so anyone want to build :)
-
You want someone to custom build it for you? if so I can do it for you. Momma can be a reference :D
-
well i'll build it i just don't know what to put in it you know. i was looking at vigor games but they cost a pretty penny. so just seeing if anyone could come up with the best stuff that would last a while for around 1000 dollars. :)
-
Ok gotcha, I will get you a parts list. Monitor yes/no Wireless or wired.?
-
i have a 19 in mon right now but i am going to prob get a new one. we'll see i woul drather have a beter computer you know. and it will be wired.

if you want good service, excellent pricing (except on ram, for some reason their ram is way overpriced) and some good quality computer building, i highly recommend
cyberpowerpc.c om
I ordered my computer from them in august, excellent price (around 700 or so bucks) with everything top of the line. With shipping and tax it cost about 880 or something, but still way worth it. Paroose there, see if you like anything.
I recommend going to the "build your own" section and select "AMD"...nevermind here's the link

Wow, yeah the memory is fucking $$$pricey... thats probably where they try to screw people who don't know.
-
So what's up, have you started on it...
-
not yet i am waiting till after my birthday which is tomorrow so i can get that money as well. get as much as i can then i will start the build. and i will be back in action playing with all of you again.
-
ok an i think i am stupid cus i can't figure out that site at all.
-
just go to the bottom link i posted....
this one
http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/Athlon64_AM2_Dual_Core_Custom_Build_Configurator/
and just pick which thing you want in your computer.
-
ya i went to that site but i don't know what to click on or what ever. like i can't find anything that will let me choose what stuff. maybe i am just missing it. i see all the stuff on the bottome but i can't click on anything. i'm slow i 'm sorry please don't hate me
-
Umm...scroll down the page? That's all i can think of, when i click on the link it shows the current configuration on the right side of the screen, and when you scroll down it lets you select your case, then your power supply, then your CPU, then your cooling fans and motherboard...
After you finish checking which options you want, go to the very bottom of the page and hit "page 2" and then it'll let you continue selecting what you want in your computer.
-
idk maybe it is my computer but i don't see any of that. i'll try it on another computer later tomorrow.
-
Do you have an add-blocker on or something, maybe that's what it is doing.
-
i have no clue what is going on i turned off the blocker but still the same thing showes up. idk
-
ok change of plans. i am just going to update my computer that i have now. well i really just need a new graphic card. because when i play bf or any game it will shut down on me and i can't play any more, i can hear everything but just cn't see anything. question. if my ram is ddr and my graphic card is ddr3 does that mean i need ddr3 graphic card. it is a nvidia 6800 gt. what should i get on the graphic card?
-
Ha, are you sure that's the only thing your current computer needs, is a graphics card? If so, cool, that's your best bet. But what if you get a new one and it still has problems... Are you definitely not getting a new computer now or are you just thinking about it?
-
well i kinda of need to get some other stuff and save a litle bit more money. so i think that is the problem so i might just upgrade the computer i already have. like new sound card, new gc, basically upgraded new computer. just don't know what to do you dig.
-
If your old computer is agp then I would not upgrade it, if it uses old sd or ddr ram then I wouldn't upgrade, if it has an older gen cpu that is almost at the mobo max supported then do not upgrade. Also newer hardware needs more power, can your current psu handle it?
-
this is what i am going to buy, it comes out to a good price and it is what i can afford as of now. tel me what you think.
-
It all looks good to me and you should be able to run any game on it at high settings. Let's hope they all work when you install them. I'm not sure about the specifics of each one, you might have to wait for CP or someone to tell you whats up.
