I have been saving for the past year for a gaming PC. I have saved up about 650$. I need help finding the best possible pre built PC that can play the most games like D3, Skyrim, SWTOR and anything else. I also need it to have an OS. I have a monitor and a mouse and keyboard but wont mind if it comes with them. Any help is appreciated ALOT.

I have been looking into the iBuypower and Cyberpower PC's on Newegg. How would they handle games?

I dont want to build my own PC.

I wouldnt trust anything from ibuypower or cyberpower because they are simply the same pcs but at a different site. I am just saying this due to some past experiences I have had with those companies. Some people may have it a different way. Anyway, my advice to you is keep looking at sites like newegg, tigerdirect, or maybe even bestbuy.

You should order the components separately and pay someone to put them together if you don't wanna or can't do it yourself. It would still be a better deal than any pre built PC. I'd gladly help you choose the components.

True, but remember that another 6670 would add an additional $70-$100 to the price. Also consider that the systems posted by jxu6 have better processors and arguably better cases. When taking into account that the systems posted by jxu6 perform better in their stock state and are competitive even after the APU based system has been upgraded, I feel that jxu6's systems are the better option.

like i said the intergrated gpu is on par with the 6670 plus the asus case is better fit bigger cards the ibuypower pc's have harddrive bays blocking long cards.

Pardon me for being stubborn, but I'm quite confident that the 6550D loses to the 6670; the 6670 has a higher SPU count, higher core clock rate, and doesn't rely on shared system memory as the 6550D does.

It has better graphics, but more importantly the quality is better and you actually know what you get. There's also room for CPU overclock if you add an aftermarket cooler. Assembling a PC is a half hour work, or maybe 1 hour for a novice PC builder, $100 seems a little steep but even that's better than buying a pre-built crap.

Im still onn the fence about building my own. The psu wireing looks like the most complicated thing about it to me. Other than that it looks pretty simple.

Check ibuypower.com... you can select ready-made builds (which can be customized if you like), or you can start from scratch. Their prices are great (about $50 over what you would pay if you built it) and they built me a beast with no bloatware and solid parts/cable managment.

You sure the 7750 is better than the 6770? I did some research and it shows that the 7750 is more PSU freindly but is less powerful than the 6770. Can someone please confirm this? If so ill just get the 6770. It will save me some money.

I thought that prebuild had a 6670, not 6770. 6770 is a little faster than 7750 on stock, but you can overclock a 7750 more, so in the end it's all the same s#łt. I'd rather get a 7750 because it's newer and consumes less power, but that PSU I linked can handle a 6770 just fine. Your choice.

You can buy this case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811156243 $35

and this Hard Drive http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136769 $80

which will save you $20 compared to the other case which was $50 and the other hard drive that cost $85.

Would you recommend getting warranties for every part or none or just certain parts?

^^This^^ I like. And when I think about it you could save even an additional $45 if you buy this Intel MB/CPU combo:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116397

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139028

So basically with this you would have a lot better performing PC in today's games, but you'd have to settle for micro ATX and no CPU overclock as an option. Instead you would have the option to change it to an i5 when you feel the need for more power. Sorry for text links, I think my Firefox is broken.

Micro ATX boards can fit into ATX cases if that's what you mean. No need to choose a different case.

What should i put warranties on? It has 24$ shipping and is 617$ now. That is 641$. Are warranties essential to a first time builder?

Im closer to building my own than buying off of iBuy or Cyber. Still not 100% though.

spikekyn

Well I have built many, many pcs for myself and for friends and family, and I still recommend ibuypower simply because you get a solid warranty with tech support and no bloatware. What's more, they run your machine through a day or two of testing, so you get peace of mind. I've had two builds get delayed by a week or two because of faulty doa parts that had to be replaced, and it was really nice to know that the pc would arrive in working condition. I understand the desire to know where everything is and get to know your machine by customizing it yourself, but honestly, the ibuypower I just got was made exactly as I would have done it, and you can still use your PC knowledge to upgrade it. Your call, though, of course. Just don't let the savings argument be an issue, because it isn't a factor with ibuy. (CyberpowerPC charges about 10% more.) You can still 'know' your rig if somebody else built it since you choose all the parts. They send you all the software and manuals that came with your parts, and they get you your machine pretty fast - so long as you don't order it in November or December.
