I was looking at getting a new better gaming rig with the AMD FX9590 and was looking at maingear, is there way I could make a better or equal PC for less or should I go with maingear for the quality, I have had previous PC's off of them and the quality has always been excellent!

OMG and you believe the 200Mhz and 300MHz jump @100W TDP @111$ difference plus the 100W power that you'll be burning up extra is worth it????
Your current rig is good enough you really don't need anything new and the difference is going to be minimal performance wise whereas the heat and electricity is going to be enormous....

I have been reading up on some of the reviews on the 9590 and I do do quite a lot of video editing and running of virtual PC's using HyperV, the price in GBP is about £3500 or $6144 USD

My current config is at the bottom of my answers but like I said above I do a lot of high-ending gaming and video editing/virtual PC's

thanks man!
I was just wondering, I will admit that the bills they produce and the amount of heat they produce are enormous as a friend of mine has one, as it is I only get about 10-15fps less and my bills are about half of what his are so...
thanks again and also I shall be a little bit less stupid next time!
:p
