So Im going to have to buy an Alienware or ibuypower today due to the wife not wanting me to deal with building it.So I need to know is there going to be a big diffrence from 5770--5870.Thanks

So I upgraded to AMD Phenom™ II X4 955 Black Edition Quad-Core CPU ----Free Upgrade] iBUYPOWER AMD Liquid CPU Cooling Fan System Kit ----4 GB [2 GB X2] DDR3-1333 Memory Module Corsair or Major Brand-It comes out to $1100.00 with shipping comes out to $1185.00 $300.00 cheaper then the dell alienware.

I talked to the wife today when she got home from work I told her about Building the Pc.She told me she does not want me wasting our time because I deploy next week trying to build a Pc.I liked alot of your suggestions and the Amd phenom build but neither Hp or dell offer them Im thinking about the ibuypower but they have so many options I dont know how to choose.

lol,

I want to thank everyone here for all the Help Im likeing the Amd phenom Black editions .After writting down and comparing I decided to take a look at ibuypower website the price for me to build and them build is only about a $100.00 diffrence.Only thing holing me down is there customer service but it looks like they cover warranty for 3 years.I also would like to have a phenom black edition and it doesnt look like they offer that.

say what? :?smc91352

Yea he ssaid I could tell him what I was planning on doing with my pc and he can pick out the neccesary parts and give me a total with the build and everything included.

Yea he ssaid I could tell him what I was planning on doing with my pc and he can pick out the neccesary parts and give me a total with the build and everything included.

So I got off the phone with a local store he would charge $80.00 to build it but his suggested he pick out the parts because Amd is a dieing technology.I will call some other stores when I get time.

When I build my computer and power it up how will I know its working properly? If one day I just start getting errors how would I know what it is? How can I be sure this unit wont catch fire?again Im not doubting you guys I just want to make sure I dont fail at this.

Hell, I might as well put an i5 build together too... Build 3: $199.99 - Intel Core i5-750 Lynnfield Quad-Core Processor $139.99 - ASRock P55 Extreme LGA 1156 Motherboard $104.99 - G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 1866MHz RAM $404.99 - ASUS Radeon HD 5870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 Video Card $139.98 - COOLER MASTER RC-690 Black Case + COOLER MASTER 700W Power Supply combo deal $69.99 - Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB 3.0Gb/s SATA Hard Drive w/ 32MB Cache $19.99 - SAMSUNG Black 22X SATA DVD Burner _______ $1079.92 Like the others, everything is top of the line. And it's closer to $1100...superclocked

How long would a system like that last?All I would have to do is upgrade parts along the years right?
