Hardware for the Gamer

keep in mind that Im looking to keep it somewhat budgetable and under the $700 range.

Are you still planning on staying under your $700 budget? If you are, well... you suck at it. You're almost $300 over.

holy cow though! I symathize. A british pound goes much farther than an American dollar, and with that in mind, it costs MORE. That's insane....
