GameFront, "While investing in a long-term, moderately powerful computer makes the most sense financially, every diehard PC gamer needs to splurge on a monster gaming rig at least once in their life — ideally, during that sweet spot after they’ve gotten a steady job and can afford it, but before they have a wife who will scream at them to no end for “wasting so much money on toys.” So for you, the unwed PC gamer who has decided to make the leap and buy a monster rig, as well the married gamer with balls of steel, we put together the following system for approximately $1500. It may not have all the pretty bells and whistles of more ridiculously-priced systems, but in terms of raw gaming power, it’s tough to beat."
It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.
The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.
Scrawl: "Looks like we know how that new Compile Heart countdown is going to end. The latest issue of Famitsu has confirmed that Agarest Senki 2, known as Record of Agarest War 2 in the US, is Compile Heart’s newest title."
1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.
Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

don't think any person has ever spent millions on a gaming rig
GTX 580's in SLI are overkill for the average gamer. One HD 6970 will do it at 1920x1080 or 1920x1200 while maintaining a solid 60 fps, maxed out. Using an SLI setup is only for those enthusiasts who have multiple 2560x1600 monitors, which will, unfortunately, cost you another whopping $800-1000 per monitor.
I've built my own rigs for years. If I was gaming on a 1080p monitor, like your average person about to build a good gaming rig will be, I'd go with an Intel Core i5 2500k, a motherboard that supports SLI and/or Crossfire, and either an Nvidia GTX 570 or an AMD Radeon 6950 2GB. Very few games will push these cards too hard even at completely maxed settings.
SSDs are nice, but they really don't make that much of a difference if you're only using them as an OS drive. If you were going to get a large SSD & install all of your games on it that would be a different story. Get a nice, big Western Digital Sata III 7200 RPM HDD. Plenty fast enough, & relatively inexpensive.
A blu-ray burner, really? I don't know many people who even burn DVDs anymore, in the age of streaming video & torrent sites.
You can build a great gaming PC that will blow any current console, & very likely next gen's lineup too, for well under $1000.
I will say that many of the components the author chose are very nice, though, & if money isn't too big an issue they'd make for an amazing rig.
well lets see it from this point of view
console gamer: all pc guys are elitest
pc gamer: console gamers are kids
console gamer: pc cost too much
pc gamer: pc has more graphics
thats how most comments end up and my comment was aimed at those guys that do bring pc cost into consideration in the argument that consoles are better.
did you really think that my comment meant i was talking about every console gamer? that would have been ridiculous. i did re read my comment and it does seem like i was directing it at all console gamers but no i was not
Now I love my consoles but I did just get a gaming rig for $750 and can play everything maxed at 1080p. It just takes shopping around and it always helps to network and find people that can hook you up :)
