I know just enough to get in trouble with computers. We want to get a new gaming computer for our son and the exact same machine for me to play games with him. We play a lot of FPSs like Battlefield and Call of Duty. I also like Fallout.
I know we can probably save a little money building ourselves, but that intimidates me a lot!!! Also, it seems that I could forget things, connect wrong or get nickeled and dimed to death, so I would like to get a system built either custom or something from the on-line or big box stores. We currently have computers, but they are 5-6 years old. They were HP or Dell computers that we just added a better video card too. Can we get our O/S off them to transfer or do we need to buy again?
What is the opinion of "Ibuypower" machines? My son likes the NE431FX which is just above our price range on Newegg.com
Any and all help/opinions would be great?
Thanks in advance!
