    Ok, I just needed to ask. My own stupidity when I checked the prices I just glanced and saw the antec at 260 and the bfg at 120. Then I noticed the bfg had a massive mark down. That brings the set up down to 1,800 instead of 2,400 but those aren't including monitor. Thanks for all this help so...

    Online Gaming: Other Adults Developing Disdain For It?

    I'll admit I am not in the adult age category but I can't help posting. When i first started playing online I only played with friends but I slowly began playing by myself more. Fast forward through being disgusted that kids my age could actually be such immature, racist, ignorant people and I...

    What version of L4D is this?

    They were beta skins. Einhander got it right with the need to distinguish characters. They also wanted them to look a little bit more like they were running for their lives in a zombie apocalypse and not just going rambo on every zombies.

    Ok I figured, then I'm going to need to ask another rather stupid question. Will the bfg have or cause heat issues because it doesn't have a back fan? None of those reviews seemed to indicate anything of the like but I'm just being paranoid.

    JG? Forgive my ignorance. I had just seen some good reviews of the antec and hadn't seen that bfg before.

    I just assumed with the low price. I'll consider switching that in then.

    Looks good but I would prefer to stick with the antec psu. I'm willing to spend more than necessary for something that I know is quality and will last. That thermalright cpu cooler looks big. My worry is how stable it is. I need to move this computer to and from my house almost every weekend...

    I don't think the gtx 280 is going to struggle in the next year or two and by then I can afford to upgrade my video card. I appreciate your help I3beyond but if you could please shove it with snide remarks like that.

    I was under the impression that 1680x1050 isn't taking full advantage of the gtx280 but 1920x1200 would or at least a little. I already have audiotechnica a700 headphones. I guess I'll need to think on that.

    I guess I should have stated this in my original post but my parents are paying for the majority of it. So really spending less for the 920 over the 940 isn't a huge deal. I know the performance difference is rather minor but the price gap isn't enough to slap another 280 in there and even if I...

    I didn't know that about the raptor. I had heard wd's newer drivers were catching up but I didn't know it was that close. I know the 940 is kind of a bad deal but I'm torn on going with a 940 now and not upgrading that for a long while or taking the 920 and upgrading a little sooner.

    1) What will you be doing with this PC? gaming mainly and some other general use 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? 2,500 can go a bit over with tax and shipping 3) Where do you live? IL 4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. Please be very...

    Looking for a case

    I'm looking for a case that has a good amount of space(needs to fit a gtx280), good cooling, and needs to be at least relatively light so I can move it frequently. I attend a boarding school so I move my desktop from my dorm to my house every weekend I go home. For reference this is the case I...
