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.gamingmaster77
Hey 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?

[QUOTE="evildead6789"]don't be silly , prebuilds can be great. I have a prebuild and it's better than most home made builds. And i fix computers for a living. Biggest problem with most prebuilds is the psu but you can easily replace that without going through the process of building a complete system. You get windows with prebuilds so if it's priced right you can cut very good deals. Do you know of any stores where you would buy?

The original poster said http://affordablegaming.biz But hasn't said anything since, so its hard to help him out on what to get unless u kno what games and budget ur on haha. But that site has affordable prices... thus the name? Specifically for a budget pc which is what this person wanted. They had this for I believe (don't quote me if I'm wrong) for $649 Specs were: Win 7 pro Athlon ii x3 3.1ghz 4gb 1333mhz ram Gtx 460 768mb (rather have the 1gb...) Ultra 550watt supply Motherboard ??? They don't say..

[QUOTE="NoAssKicker47"][QUOTE="jrpowell01"] Cool. Is Episode 3 not going be on the new engine or still source?NaveedLife

Unknown.

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...

[QUOTE="ionusX"]

their probably jsut going to refresh source.. rev 3.0!! :o

DanielDust

If they're going to enhance it, it'll be more like 7.0 since Portal 2 is the 6th revision.

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

My guess is they'll be working on a new one once they have a new engine.
