Well if their computer is lackluster to them, then it would be easy to assume that they're not seemingly embarrassed enough to avoid posting them here =)

Also, assuming you're building them for profit, there's a good chance you'll need to register as a MOT to sell your services.

You know I could always build one...
QUICK! KILL HIM! HE ADVERTISED SERVICES!
But on a serious note, it is not difficult, just do it and save a couple (hundred) bucks.

I also agree build it! its not hard as said it in some cases it will save you a ton of money ( depends on how high end you go ) Usually the higher end it is the more money you save. Plus it can be tons of fun picking out computer parts to mix and match

LOL! yes...BUILD YOUR OWN GAMING DESKTOP!!!!

 

[stang]

Building a PC is a piece of cake. Tried when I was 13 and nothing went wrong. 16 now and still build my own obviously. Dead simple and you can customize it the way you like it. Save a lot of money by building it yourself too.

Ok i post my specs too:
Dfi LanParty LT X48 t2rs
Intel E5200 @ 3800mhz Liquid Cooled by HK 3.0lt
2gb ddr2 kingston
Ati Radeon 4850 @ 710 - 1055 Liquid Cooled by Koolance VID485
Western Digital  black caviar 160gb
 
Quite basic specs but supersilent thanks to the watercooling and i can still play everything at 1680x1050 so for me it's ok.

I am a little surprised that you are OCing and running a pretty powerful video card with only 550-Watt Antec True Power Trio.

What are you gonna do with the computer? also...no GPU and no PSU??
 

 

[Jodiuh]

Open every program I use and leave them running for days, game heavily, some video xcoding, avoiding head-fi.

 
The PC P&C 610 will be carried over from the previous setup as will a 470. The only parts needed are chip, board, and ram. I'm considering a new heatsink though. Either the Venomous X or the Silver Arrow, depending on the configuration.
