This is pretty much the top of my budget that I'm willing to spend, I don't need the best, just something good for a few years with options open to upgrade later on. I really want stability in this build more than anything! I'm currently gaming on a HDX9300 HP "Dragon" 20" laptop. The 8800M GTS in it is still holding its own with Starcraft 2 , LFD 1&2. DA2,but my laptop has one foot in the trashcan Im afraid. Anyways, My last build had an OCed p4 , 512mb OCZ?, MSI mb, 9800 pro, Antec TruePower 430w(STILL WORKS!). I dusted it off the other day and fired right up(all lights and fans still worked too, I was suprised) so Id love to build another one of those. I wont be buying another "super" laptop, not the worst Idea ive had but pretty bad.....
