I recently built a computer for someone designed around an Athlon 64 and ATI 9800 Pro. It had a 200 gig Western Digital SATA hard drive with a DVD+/-RW and CD-RW. The Corsair Micro memory had a serious issue with the MSI NEO Platinum motherboard. It only reported half of each DIMM. Anyway, the speed of the system was amazing. Assembling a computer will teach you about components, conflicts, and other beneficial intricacies. I agree that purchasing a Dell would not be advisable.

Have to disagree. I have owned 3 Dells and recommended Dell to numerous family members. No problems at all.

my dell that I got for Christmas seems to give me BSOD's 3-4 times a day while playing mohaa.
I've never had this much trouble with any other computer I've owned

Sounds like a driver issue.

Dell does produce nice computers, on the whole, but assembling components into a computer offers distinct advantages. You know exactly what goes in it so any driver issues can usually be easily traced. If price is an issue, then I would probably recommend going with a pre-assembled computer simply for the value of components, software, and support. Remember that if you build one, then you are the user and tech support.
this is why i bought a mac... no thought involved... no bs either
D does ure mac ever give u any problams
no, but there are allot of things diffrent on a mac, there are less games and prog for a mac. things that are for a mac dont screw up a tenth as much. programs actually work for mac. ummmm..... no missionary and no hacks but to counter less maps and no ventrilo. though they are constructing it as we speak so is team speak. there is a awesome network for mac called game ranger. they have their own communication like vent and u can host ur own game and what not. their is a fee for the communication thing like 50 a year but u can host games and what not. there are allot of cool thing for mac, i like it allot better than a pc. if u are going to do graphic work mac are then best. though i would suggest finding a friend with a mac and checking it out for ur self. u can do maybe half of the stuff that a pc can do but to me its worth it by far. also less viruses and spyware stuffas well. the warranty is awesome its great. check it out at mac.com. plus i tunes is the best and as well as lime wire. plus u can laugh when they say they have lag and their missionary goes down...
