I've helped my dad build computers before. It's not that hard if you buy the parts (motherboard, cpu, gpu, etc) instead of making them yourself.

And you end up with a computer actually worth something in the end. PROTIP: Don't be all hyped about quad core. If you don't have a good GPU, then its worthless. But do get excited about your GPU  tongue

Lol make the parts yourself. Bring on the 8 bit computers as 64 bit would take forever.

Should be fun putting together a computer. Should only take 1 - 2 hours if you know what you are doing.

Re: Im building a computer !!!!!!!!!!!

Get the 2600K i7 or something CPU... although CPU is not as important for gaming computers as the RAM and the GPU.

Get a 2GB GPU

At least 8GB RAM

There you go!  smile

Nice one...

The good thing about building your own computer is that you can get a huge cooling system, then run your computer overclocked. You may even get to 4Ghz  big_smile

Does the recommended price mean for the processor itself, or a full unit? 1,000 for a processor is insane...

For the processor I guess...

2600K has a recommended price of just over $300, that's not too bad for a top end quad core 2.4Ghz i7 unlocked multiplier intel  smile

Probably what my mum will say too, if I say I want to build a computer, which I probably will for my next one, although this Mac is going to last me a long long time  smile

That's a good amount, you could defiantly have yourself a mean machine for that.   

Graphics processor   250-$300
Case                        80-$90
Power supply           50-$80
Motherboard           140-200
Computer processor 200-$300
Hard-drive               100-$150
                              =       =
                           $740 | $1030
