Harddrive: 120 GB Maxtor or Western Digital



Does it look good so far? The total would cost me just below $400 at newegg. Can't wait to get back on online games.
Go with a brand New Dell. Just my thought.. goto www.Dell.com and you can get some of their most up to date computers with a pertty penny but well worth every dollor but since its Video games.. go with AlienWere (or its AlienWear.. I can't remember the correct name for it) anyway.. I've had one of those when I used to play alot of online video games (basicly at the time of MOA was the big thing and sorta still is) and I had a great online gaming experience. So thats just my thought for the whole idea of the new PC. However.. by what I Currently have (Muh Dell!) its great for all general useage all around. When it comes to getting a new or used PC.. for about 500-700. Its worth the penny to buy a used one from dell ( had a used one a dn new one. both worked just great) and its worth the money for video games. Make sure to get windowz XP professional. Thats a great add on. Professional will allow you to download the game onto your computer without never having to use the CD ever again. Not alone does it pervent online lag from your computer.. but the game play and speed is over all great with it.
