$7,500 budget

[Rich_Newbie]

i've browsed alienware quite a bit and been told they are very over priced. anyone have a website where i can custimize an order for a pre-built pc. and whats better for gaming as far as cpu's Intell or AMD?

intel core 2 duo is the best right now

and i really wanna stress how you can build your pc right now for 7500 bucks just to have it be only decent in almost a year.

use at the most around 3k and use the rest for something else or put it in a savings account

 

[Rich_Newbie]

then help me find a pre-built 3k comp that will let me play the top end games at max graphics and you have yourself a deal.

ya if you want a good priced pre build I think you sould take a look at Ibuypower.

 

[Rich_Newbie]

so this website looks great, what basis should i shoot for? CPU, Motherboard, Video cards and HDD?

if u want prebuilt then thats ur choice. i would reccomend build it urself. wait for quad core. and get 8800gtx in sli. and do not get the sonly blu ray roms. blu ray is gonna lose the format war. if anything get an hd dvd player.
