depending on the video card, i'd say so

Posted by Psy-Trancer on Mar-11-2005 02:35:

northwood or prescott core?
and depends on video card...

good and like they said depends on video card. IF its a x800xl or 6800gt or higher then get it

Posted by SkyHigh on Mar-11-2005 03:40:

it says nothing about the video card,but I got my Radeon 9000 Pro.

it also depends on the mboard as well! dont get sucked into buying \"cheap\" packaged deals that appear to be good. you can buy really shite P4 motherboards & slow & nasty ram etc, and still call it a \"P4-3Gig 10 GIG DDR memory\" when the components arent as good as they might be.

your best bet would be to buy components online, assuming youre confident in building your own machine. its not that hard really.

Alienware - Three times the price of a normal PC for a cool-looking case with lights.

Alienware - Faster, and cooler than a normal PC especially if you dont know how to make your own gaming PC.

classic... ya they sure have their own little niche going

Custom builds can be very satisfying
especially on the wallet...

I cant build my own yet..This is only gonna be my second computer.It does say Genuine Intel motherboard.. I just have no idea if thats good or not.
Besides I bought my current PC from them and it does everything i want it to do. It plays all games,almost never had any problems. I just had to get a new video card ,and more memory.And ive had it for 2 years
