I think I have decided to build an I5, but looking for what parts people have used and any comments good or bad.
another suggestion. this here totals $855 + shipping, so you still have some room for other things you might want to get. i dont know if you also need an OS also; if you don't then you can get a good aftermarket cpu cooler, and/or a nice keybaord + mouse. this build is crossfire ready also, incase you want to add a second card later on.
