Excuse me? You're welcome for mentioning Micro Center...diasflacog wrote:Also for future reference please don't dumb things down to make it cheaper.
Pretty condescending statement. Reading through, the majority of recommendations here were still very high quality parts. It's fun to build a new rig, but don't let that excitement shroud your common sense. You don't have to spend a fortune to get an excellent gaming machine that will last many, many years. Word from the wise: Don't pay extra for features you'll never use.
