    making a pc?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I am thinking about getting a pc pretty much just to game on. Right now i have a laptop that can only run games that are like 4 years old. Where is the best place to find good deals on components (since i assume that is the cheapest way to buy)? Also what are some good video cards capable of running games like doom 3 and farcry? thanks in advance guys!

    I get everything from http://www.mwave.com

    They have the best deals that I have found.

    In fact I just got a mobo/chip combo for $319 including tax.

    3.0ghz Intel P4 w/ 800mhz fsb

    As for graphics cards I usually just go to Best Buy.

    www.sharkyextreme.com has good reviews on what gfx cards are out righ tnow.

    BTW sharkyextreme has good recommendations for both budget and high-end gameing system componenets. Thats how I figured out exactly waht mobo to get.
    I think they have a new recommendation every month

    budget:
