If anyone wants to see the hardware edge of PC's suggest a price and purpose of the PC and I'll see what I can throw together. For example, I was looking at a gaming build under $1000 a few weeks back, this is what I came up with:
If you wanted to throw in some peripherals to make a full PC and compare it to the best iMac ($2000; btw its 4850 is mobile lol).
