thanks, seems like it would be worth it though, how much cheaper would it be if i built my own system.. and i'm not very good with computers i dont even think i could put one together on my own , so it seems like dishing out an extra 100 bucks or so wouldn't be so bad to have it all done for me ... what would be a good site to go though to get the components to build my own?? appreciate the feedback !

so i looked up all the parts seperately on newegg and it turns out it would actually be cheaper to have it built by cyberpower than it would to build it myself, and i would have the hassle of putting it together... doesn't make much sense, does anyone have an opinion on buying pre-built computers from cyberpower?

They have crap parts, for ex: power supply, and cooler. Many people have had their power supplies blow up, especially the ones by cyberpower. Honestly you don't need the 3820, an i5-2500k build will give you near the same performance in games.

Go with an i5 2500K build. You'll save at least $150-175 off mobo & processor and the performance will be exactly the same

And you can throw some of that into a better video card if you want/need to. Unless you are buying a hex core processor or using 3+ video cards, LGA 2011 doesn't seem the way to go, and I would strongly suggest building your own instead of Cyberpower

I'd say go for building it yourself. You will learn quite a bit more about computers during the process which is rewarding in itself. The annoying part for me my first time was hooking up the pwr, led plugs from the case to the mobo.

As the others have suggested you can save some money by going with the 2500k as for gaming it is suggested quite a bit around these woods for a good reason and is cheaper. Power supply is a no no. Best not to skimp on a PSU of all things. Brands such as seasonic, corsair or antec are good brands. GL and happy gaming.

I have been playing the D3 beta for a few months now. I can say the graphics are good but not that taxing on modern systems. All you need to play at max settings is a medium range Video card from $150 to $200. You could get a GTX 560 or better if you wish. My advice is to build your own system from scratch, you will save tons of money. Ivy bridge is coming out very soon or you could just build now using a I5-2500K.

I built my own system in Nov 2011 for $2000, I couldn't be happier. When I feel like it, I turn on Nvidia 3D Vision for some extra fun :)

True. Never spend more than $200 something on a gaming processor. I5-2500K is the best price/performance CPU as of right now. For PSU's and other parts, I recommend Corsair. Don't ever skimp on components, get the best brand names.

I find this funny tbh.

I've been in the Diablo 3 BETA since the beginning. I'm convinced a GeForce 8800GT can run the game let alone the graphics cards y'all are talking about.

This isn't Battlefield 3 here...
