The Intel costs $664 and the AMD costs $652
I'm trying to keep it as low as possible, yet still maintain a quality PC.
Let me know if you have any suggestions, please.
Thanks in advance guys, I appreciate it.
I'm more than likely going to play any/every game I can get my hands on, including crysis, FEAR, half life, bioshock, etc. I'm REALLY looking forward to Spore too.
Plus, either computer is an upgrade to what I'm using now.... 266 Mhz
I'm glad my 18th birthday's coming up in a few weeks.
