I went to Canada computers and someone there helped me work out what I posted.http://www.canadacomputers.com/
I asked for something that I would be able to play anything on with max settings and taking into consideration games that may come out in the next few years.

posted this from another thread today. change the gpu to this one
http://ncix.com/products/?sku=72914&vpn=N670%20PE%202GD5%2FOC&manufacture=MSI%2FMicroStar

What are the main differences between the one you posted and the one I originally picked?

the cpu is overkill. you wont benefit more from the i7 in gaming compared to an i5
you need a reliable psu
you dont need more than 8gb of ram. 8gb of ram is actually overkill
the ssd is alright but id much rather have a vertex 4
the gpu is probably the only thing you wouldnt need to change
case is totally up to you

So you cant see the i7 helping even in a year or so?
What makes the posted psu unreliable?
And I have been told that about the ram though ive figured it might be worth it not having to worry about it ever

1. no
2. not too common brand, unknown unit , just forget it.
3, more ram doesn't do anything, 8gb is already overkill for most people today, so don't think about it...

if you plan on doin heavy video/music/photo editing then the i7 would be great. if not, its not worth the money.
sorry havent been doin my homework on that psu, but damn its fuckin expensive. you can get the same quality psu for way cheaper
its the same situation with the i7. if the computer is purely for gaming, 16gb is just a waste of money.

Okay fair enough would you have any suggestions for the psu? Odds are I will be picking everything up from http://www.canadacomputers.com/ at the in store location by me.
If I went with a i5 I would have to grab a different motherboard aswell right?
