New Desktop
« on: January 20, 2010, 01:11:31 PM »
Well I am getting a desktop and I would like it to be a gaming rig. Does any one have any advice. I am thinking might as well get a quad core but not sure.

kilo2, I moved this thread into the hardware and software forum as I happen to know you will get a lot of quality responses here from folks who never go into the O'Club forum (I wouldn't, if I did not have to).

That's the big question here. Also are you planning a build or buying a proprietary system?

My budget is 2500 dollars. I don't think I know enough to build one so i would be getting a proprietary system. I was looking at a Alienware computer but I don't know if your just buying the brand with that computer or it really is a top of the line gaming system.

Call TilDeath, that's my opinion my friend.  If you don't want to build it yourself, call him.  As soon as I have the money to, he's getting my business I guarantee it.

kilo...please, stay away from already built's...either call TD or build your own (I know you said you don't want to but it is a great experience). TD is a quality guy and will help you with whatever needs you might need. (Bad choice of words).  2500 is a lot, he can get you a kickarse system.

I was thinking the same thing myself.  Hey kilo, feel free to spend some of that and donate the rest to the help low get a new machine fund.  I'll write a receipt so you can take it off of your taxes.   :aok

I will give him a call. Does any one run one of his systems now? I would like to hear a review of it.

Generally a search for TilDeath (or some variance thereof) will reveal plenty of his work.
