[QUOTE="evildmguy, post: 5012319, member: 6092"] Greetings! I am hoping for recommendations on a gaming PC. I used to go with Dells and I still like them but am curious if they are still competitive. So, I am looking here for help! My budget is about $1500 for a gaming desktop. I am open to whatever runs games well, such as the new Arkham Asylum, Ghostbusters, Dragon Age: Origins as well as older games but I assume if it runs those that it will handle older games. (KotOR, Battlefield 2, Max Payne, NWN2, Titan Quest) I was looking at a WidowPC WGMI-1P5540 as it has the higher end video card, and I like nVidia and intel but again, overall performance is the thing. I don't know anything about WidowPC and the reviews I have read seem to make it a crap shoot. Mostly good reviews but the occasional person who got bad service from them. (I used to have a Quantex back in the day and had no problems and had fine service. Years later, I find the quantexsux.com site for someone who had terrible enough service to make a web site about it.) I also went to cypberpowerpc and seemed to get a pretty good configuration there, again compared to Dell, with slower memory. But, while I know the basics and can trouble shoot and change things, I don't know what mother boards go with what cards or if the system I picked there will be compatible. So, again, that's why I am coming here. Anyone have suggestions for a good gaming system in the $1500 range? Any good or bad reviews about widowpc? Cyberpowerpc? Thanks! edg [/QUOTE]
