How to Build a Kick-ass $800 Gaming PC
Posted 12/30/2008 at 11:06:52pm
I"m trying to get a opinion of the masses for my next build: I'm gonna be working with a cash cap of about $1200.
First I'm going to be using the PC primarily for Gaming (ie: Flight Sim X, WoW) so not really intense games. Then it's secondary purpose will be TV recording strait to my PC.
Should I go with:
PROCS: AMD or Intel, Dual-Core or Quad - Core
MOBO: 2 x PCIE 2.0 or 3x slots?
GRAPHICS: Nvidia or ATI?? who's the best?
Also should I got with internal or external TV recorder?
Thanks to all the Maximum PC fans for you help!! GO ARMY!!!
