BlainThePain Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 I had some money saved up and decided to treat myself, so I bought a new computer. I went all out and bought one with the best processor AMD makes, 4 gigs of the best RAM money can buy, and one of the best video cards.Some of the specs:Case- Coolermaster Elite 310CPU- AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black EditionMemory- 4 gigs of Kingston HyperX DDR31 TB hard-driveVideo Card- EVGA NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 275 896 MBBlu-Ray DVD playerI also ordered a Vizio 1080p 32' flat screen from Walmart to hook it up to, but it hasn't come in yet. I eventually want to add 4 more gigs of RAM as well. So far it runs like a dream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just click on a model that is close to what you want and you can customize the rest. It was my first time dealing with them, and, all in all, it was a good experience. The only thing is it took a couple weeks before I got my PC because they have to assemble everything and they ship from California. I was going to build one myself, but CyberPower was significantly cheaper than buying the individual parts on NewEgg. I saved around $500. Plus, if you buy from them, its assembled in the U.S.A. if that matters to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shipping cost about 50 bucks to Kentucky. If you order one type "REPEAT" in the coupon box and you'll get 5% off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 I just got a new computer myself. It's not the powerhouse you got, but it'll suit my needs. Sony Vaio VGN-FW550paired with this in the office: Samsung P2370HDI normally build my own machines, so I feel a bit dirty about this purchase. Oh well...something tells me I'll live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
