My wife was going to get me a setup from her computer guy at work, and this is what he came back with as an updated estimate over the one he had given us a few months ago.
I see the video card as the gtx 460, and that strikes a bell from another thread of mine. Is there a better, faster, cooler running version that we should be looking at? And is this setup going to run cool enough to be on running for 15 hours straight or what not?
He says this 'new' i-5 runs faster than the old i-7, and I remember the discussion about overclocking, which we probably will NOT be doing, so is this overkill, or is it nice enough that we just get it and run with it?
I would like all opinions, and advice... I am terrible at computer building and would love all the help I can get before I drop the cash on this just trusting one opinion. I'm a 'second opinion' type of person
