I will be playing games like crysis or the new cod....mostly action/shooting games. I'm leaning towards something prebuilt just because I don't feel like building anything myself. I just want to get a computer and play.gamingmaster77Hey again, yeah like was said above... The X-ray 135 seems good as was said above, but I'd go with the X-ray 130 myself. They're stating the CPU for that model is to 3.8GHz (safely?) which means it's probably a better black edition model. The video cards between the the x-ray 130 and 135 are roughly the same to be honest and you dont need 2GB unless you plan on playing on multiple monitors... I don't quite remember if you needed a monitor or not, but that's a good point that was made above... If you are going to buy one from them ask about the brand first though. I think its a good idea to talk to anyone who your going to make a big purchase like this from... haha... Too bad you can't bust out $7K on that 190 thing... Triple GTX 580 Hydro Copper 2's!?!? Overkill maybe?

Unknown.[QUOTE="NoAssKicker47"][QUOTE="jrpowell01"] Cool. Is Episode 3 not going be on the new engine or still source?NaveedLife
I would be shocked if Episode 3/Half Life 3 (whichever they do) does not use the next engine, and I would also be shocked if that engine wasnt mind blowing and something similar to Frostbite Engine 2 or better if it comes out significantly later.
It would make sense for it to be on a new engine since it has been forever since ep. 2... but then again, portal 2 would have most likely been on the new engine also since hl3/ep3 is supposedly coming out in the unknown near future...If they're going to enhance it, it'll be more like 7.0 since Portal 2 is the 6th revision.[QUOTE="ionusX"]
their probably jsut going to refresh source.. rev 3.0!! :o

Expect a new CS with HL 3, since it's clear that they won't make an Episode 3.
hmm. making sense now. its all coming together :0 I though it was the other way around: they were going to make an episode 3 not a HL3 ? maybe im wrong. i dont read the newz
