Hi! So, I currently have an Asus G73-SW gaming notebook and well with my GTX 460M and i7-2630QM I feel like it's time for an upgrade. Also, since my current notebook is more like a movable desktop I decided it makes more sense to just get a desktop and a good looking monitor instead of another notebook.
With that said, my budget is around $2500-$2850. I really don't know too much about pc's and what works best although I do know some basics. I was looking online and came across CyberPower custom built pc's and found this http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/Zeus_EVO_Thunder_Max .
I really don't know if that's a good buy or not, and when looking at it I would probably upgrade the sound card as I like good audio. If I can get someone else's insight who knows a thing or two more about this stuff that would be great!
Also, a friend mentioned looking at Dell's Aurora Gaming Desktop : http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-aurora-r4/pd?oc=DPCWNY1&model_id=alienware-aurora-r4#overrides=dpcwny1:2~L24930K;29~DQ1OE;3~32G164D;11~W8PROAE
However, as a gamer I am aware of the stereotypes that come with alienware and how they're mostly overpriced. I also did a quick google search on CyberPower PC as a company and it looks like getting a good functioning product from them is hit or miss.
Last but not least I also played around with ibuypower and came up with this build. Not really sure if everything works (if all the options are a good fit with each other) and decided to get the GTX 780 EVGA superclocked over the GTX 780 ti EVGA superclocked as i'm not sure the differences are worth $220 more. //www.ibuypower.com/Store/Gamer-Paladin-D879/W/201302
If anyone can help me out here, I would really appreciate it. Thanks
