Hey i registered for these forums to ask you guys a few questions about computers. Im trying to make a good gaming computer for a good price, but not exactly top of the line. Ive posted the stuff that I was thinking about putting in and just wanna hear some input from people that are very good with this stuff... Is there anything i should really change for a good but not $4000 computer, I wanna try to buy it after christmas for some potential after christmas sales. Thanks for your time and help.
