I was wondering which desktop to get? I am a gamer and I want a computer that can run games like Crysis 3 efficiently.

With each one I would add 16 GBs of RAM

Which ever one seems better I was also wondering what else i would need to run it well and to make them wireless.


If you find a better or know of a better desktop or even laptop that is around the same price or less, let me know.

ASUS P9X79 Intel X79 Motherboard and Intel Core i7-3820 3.60GHz Quad-Core Processor and EVGA GeForce GTX 660 2GB GDDR5 Video Card and Seagate Barracuda 2TB Serial ATA Hard Drive and Thermaltake Bundle

8gb is sufficient for a gaming rig

Do you want USB or PCIE for wireless connection?

Wow, no way!! Hope you haven't ordered yet. i7-3820 and GTX660 is like 4 rungs down the ladder from an FX-8350 and a 7970. And the 7970 system is $100 less!


P.S. - the Intel system doesn't even come with RAM, so it's more like $150 more expensive, and again, will game at probably half the framerates due to the FAR inferior graphics card..
