you can get a gaming desktop and a laptop for school for the same price as a gaming laptop if the reason you want one is for school and gaming

Don't buy Alienware. It's overpriced.

If you're in a major company or in a university you can oftentimes reap massive discounts. That or talk to Strife.

you can also get msoft word and shit for cheap being a student. check online and at school book shops.

(god, i feel like one of those automated sales things that have been plaguing us recently.)

Can also buy Windows 7 for $30 if you have a .edu e-mail address.

I have Compaq notebook which is dead now a days because its mother board is dead due to fluid I have drank him in last days. I am looking for its mother board now. If you are looking for the notebook I would suggest you to buy the dell notebook which is always good in any case.

Dude, when are you going to quit spamming us, buy a copy of Neverwinter Nights, and come play?

So I now am considering a desktop, I was looking at the Gamer or Enthusiast build here. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/269162-31-recommended-builds-usage

This site is decent for price and product.

Hm, VP's link seems to have cheaper computers than the homebuilt option. Does anyone have an opinion on cyberpowerpc?

I used to build and repair computers for a living. Their downfall is that their brand names aren't 'top-end', although they typically use midrange products. (EVGA for example)

I'd say you have a rather decent build up there. All parts seem good and fine to go. I might myself go for intel chip. It's a matter of preference really, but Intel is slightly better in many areas, though AMD gives more for it's money-worth - ratio.
