I liked the above priceing for this system which was in one of the main threads. I would like some advice and such on what you could recommend, maybe swap the items from above out and give me a new overall price of what would be worth my money so I can do more of the newer games thoroughly. I posted in the video card support area and they recommended a new build, well I'd like to know what would be worth it. If I can build a good gaming comp. for around $800 that'd be perfect.
