Is there any really good gaming comps out there for a reasonable price? So I like could run everything on wow at ultra ATLEAST. No laptops :).


Thanks in advance :)

Edit: I can spend 1,500-1,800 depending on how the value for the US dollar is.

Edit: At XE.com they said it was 2,023.04 USD for the amount I'm willing to spend, but I don't know if Newegg changes their prices or something when the value of the dollar gets raised or decreased.

Edit: Saw this one, the best they have, maybe I should save a bit for that one?

But still don't know how to set it up, would be a bit un-practical if I got the computer and had no idea in how to set it up :S.

What is your spending range?

Build your own. You dont need to know how to do it either. Extremely simple. You could always chop down your current computer to add parts.

newegg.com ftw

Ive build my last 4 computers from parts ordered from newegg
 
Just got done building a computer. All for 410, w/o harddrive or optical drive, as I swapped those out of my old rig.

Newegg definitely is the place to go. My comp runs wow maxed and a lot of other games too.

x3 unlock that core and you get a 4 core for the price of 3 ahh I love you amd.

why not just get a 2x (phenom2 555) and unlock to 4 core for the price of 2 cores?

And I wouldnt go for the phenom2 6 cores, go for a 930/920 instead. It would help alot if you told us how much you would like to pay for it...

Newegg.com has the best prices for PC components. I built mine with the following specs for around $700.

amd phenom x4 955 3.2ghz quad core processor
2x nvidia 9500gt 1GB graphics cards, sli
4GB ddr3 RAM
windows 7 64 bit
550watt power supply
nice tower
razer naga mmo mouse
logitech keyboard
2x 24inch lcd monitors (already had)
simple surround sound, cheap setup

I maintain 60fps on ultra settings except for when in dal in wow

why would you pick 9500gt? :S there is much better choices.
 
Thank you all guys for your replies, as you said I should build my own, I have no idea how to do this. Where parts should go and such which parts are which and such. Maybe anyone could shed some light on that?

Thanks.

skull. Newegg does not have the best prices. Tigerdirect beats them by a long shot

No shit. There is also better processors and everything else..........

ofc there is, but the processor is atleast of a higher generation or call it whatever you want then the graphics card and instead of going for SLI you could have bought 1 good card
 
Newegg > Tigerdirect

This is not opinion. It is fact.
