PARTS PREFERENCES: by brand or type (I prefer intel)
OVERCLOCKING: A yes B/C I'm curious to try once but a maybe b/c I'm too lazy to do it.

----------------------------------
I was looking for the i7 (I wanted to try atleast one time to OC something) but some peps on the forum told me that a MID-range betwen i3 and i7 was coming soon (end sept/mid oct). I think that I can get more for my buck if I OC a system (I'll eventually run other game than SC2 & D3). I want to notice that I'm not a BIG gamer, I like to play but not that much!
