if you (clearly) dont have a budget, dont get an AMD, its worth splashing out for an i5/i7

also get an ATI card

[BltElite]

Yes, but people have diff opinions agaisnt the ati/nvidia and the intel/amd but yeah

nVidia GTX580 DDR5

On an iPad, what is the image? And I've maxed out my budget allowed, which is 1300~

Thats exactly what i was thinking. I pretty much know fuck all about CPU's but i do know Intel are a shitload better than AMD.
I use an AMD dual core and it's newer than my brothers Intel, but his CPU is better than mine.

Go with Intel.

It's an AMD-only deal. About the SLI/Double cards, I've got an nVidia 9500 laying around. So those are covered. I'd rather stick with nVidia, too.

look at the thumbnail i posted, do that set up for the highest budget

No, it's customized. What's wrong with it and why are you all putting me down for not getting 3l1t3 1nt3lz or @t1?

[smt]

does it come pre-built
if so dont get it that is all

[Bromine]

Code: [Select]

Define your definition of "Pre-built."Fuck, code. Also, I don't trust you smt. You sound like you don't know what you're talking about.

[smt]

dont trust me then idc

the rig int he image is better as well as saving about 200 dollars, thats one reason of why prebuilt (parts being built at the company, pc shipped already built hence >pre< built) is shit

You're better off with Intel than AMD. My one and only AMD that I've ever had is my current laptop. It's not bad for the price, but for a computer, Intel is the right choice.

As for the graphics card, the 580 is great. However, to get better performance with possibly less money, I'd say get to 470s or 460s and run in SLI. If you don't plan on doing that (as it is best to run the same two cards in SLI rather than a 580 + 9500), a 590 might be a better choice considering you're already paying a high amount of money to begin with.

[smt]

the cards need to be the same to sli else you'll get bottlenecking and it becomes worthless, better to buy two lower price cards and sli them than put a higher end card sli'd with a cheaper one

[BltElite]

He can't afford a 590, they are about 500 quid or so.
