 Re: Just bought a new PC [w/ specs]
i think they could of added you an HD 4890 for that price or a HD 4870 atleast but it depends on the games you are going to play and resolution, 1680x1050 is not bad for that card but 1920x1200 you would have to lower down some details. , Did you customize it on the website on the specs you wanted or you just bought the one that have names like "Paladin Edition". That max orb cpu cooler they gave you looks like it keeps hot air inside of case instead like other coolers were they throw the hot air to exhaust. Also did they do cable management?

 Re: Just bought a new PC [w/ specs]
I can answer that for you... It's customized. I helped him pick it out. Originally I was going to have him buy each individual part off of newegg... But then I found out that iBuyPower has a free 3 year warranty. So he decided to go with IBP.

 Re: Just bought a new PC [w/ specs]
Should of bought it piece for piece and went with the i7. Plus you can get a 2 year warranty with almost all your major pieces. But thats me nice buy tho.

It was probably one of the worst $209 investments I've ever made. I find it is extremely hard to play video games with a giant dick in your ass.

 Re: Just bought a new PC [w/ specs]
My photographer bought an IBP system, looks solid and runs solid too. Doesn't have any form of bloat where and very minimum advertising too throughout the whole system.
You know for custom paint they send it to a car specialties shop to have the case painted.

First off Omega was looking for an AMD system. And when we put it all together EACH part had a 30 day warranty. Believe me. If it had a 2 year warranty Omega prolly woulda gone for the newegg piece by piece.

 Re: Just bought a new PC [w/ specs]
Wow really you. I get that with a q6600 a 9600gt and 2 gigs of ram all on a shitty board. So all I'm saying is the vista rating really don't mean shit beside you have to have over a 3 to run airo or what ever the F*CK its called. O and the i7 will kick amgay's ass anyday.

 Re: Just bought a new PC [w/ specs]
LOL. Fair enough, but 3.4Ghz and 200 fps on CS is good for me. :D Bring that scrim on, bitches.
