After you get the card and PSU you will be right around $1100. For that money you can build a much better computer. I would suggest you build a PC.

Have you thought of building one yourself? Its really not worth it to get something like that and add the graphics card.

 

[tyson2295]

thought about building but unfortunatly thats not a option parents dont want me taking the risk even though i know its so friken simple to build one oh and im not buying it my parents are dad has credit with best buy so he can pay it off within 18 months im buying the gpu and psu with my cash

 

[Deemo13]

Make sure to buy a good PSU. Do you have a budget?

 

[tyson2295]

getting a antec neo 520w my budget for psu and gpu is 350 pc is up to my dad bout 900 max but like i said building not an option so yeah

 

[Deemo13]

The NEO ECO 520W is good.

It should run a 7950 with ease.

 

[tyson2295]

so do you think thats a good prebuilt for what im going to use it for my little brother gonna be doing PS and 3d rendering on it too along with alot of multi-tasking and we got credit with bestbuy so really just gonna pay 64 a month

 

[Deemo13]

Photoshop and 3D Rendering, I would recommend a 7950 or 7870. If you are doing super heavy rendering, then an i7 would be fine. If not, you can go for a regular i5.

Other than that not alot matters. Usually pre-builts have alot of RAM and stuff.

 

[tyson2295]

yeah comes with 8gb and i have 16gb of corsair vengence so ill be replacing the stock ram with that

 

[Deemo13]

I see.

Well, if you HAVE to go this route, then I guess the ASUS would be my pre-built of choice.
