[Enjin Archive] Help on a new computer (Sawine also please look)
Started by [E] Baber

Hey so I need to put in an order for a new comp tomorrow, my mom works for my Dad's company and is getting 3 computers 2morrow, so I need to put my order in with that so I can get a good computer.

I need some suggestions on what I can get, anything can help, but a few requirements:


  • Runs well for Video Games
  • General processor is good and can perform good web tasks
  • Capable of good applications to be run through it, like Skype, Mumble, Minecraft etc...
  • Must have at least 750Gigs or 1/1.5 Terrabite harddrive

Thanks,

Ive heard AlienWare is a good one so Ill be checking into that.

EDIT:

My budget is 2000-3000 $USD, and I do not want to build my own computer.

Thats not the first time I've heard that
The more the merrier then.
and... what is your budget?
Crap I knew I left something out, it's 2000-3000 $USD.
Hum, if you REALLY want something at 2000$

But past 1000$ you pay mostly because it new.

For a little less then 1000$ you can still have a PC that run everything
