If you had built it yourself and bought all that on newegg you could have saved $300-$500 easy man.

e: looks like a bitchin system though

really?? Well, I mean, the thing about newegg is that if you get certain package deals you can get big savings, so if you just went for all the exact same stuff it wouldn't have been much different

whatever, as long as the insurance money covered it it doesn't really matter

That's what I just PM'd him >.< Btw BiG_BeN I hope i didn't like upset you or anything

Ughh it's not a "bad move" at all to build your own. Jeez. I'm a whore when it comes to saving money though.

you didn't overpay for a computer you're having built, I'm just saying that if you had the time and cared about $$ you could save a lot of money or get a nicer setup for the same amount

I just threw this together,

case: ATX antec sontata III black 500w Antec ATX 900 Black w/ 520 W Power Supply
processor: i5 750 i7-920 2.66GHz Quad Core (Upgrade)
Gfx Card : radeon HD5750 Radeon HD 5770 (Upgrade)
Hard drive: Sata 2 seagate barracuda 500 Go 7200 Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 7200 RPM (Upgrade)
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-p55m-ud2 ASUS P6T6 LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard
OS: Windows 7 home edition Windows 7 home premium 64-bit (idk if you got 64 bit version, if not then upgrade)
LG dvd+/-RW same
Memory : 4 go kit Kingston DDR3 OCZ 6GB DDR3 (Upgrade)
Monitor: 23.6 inch ACL asus VH242H Hanns-G 23" HDMI Widescreen

Same Price, except you have to build it
Also $30 in mail in rebates

and several of the items aren't package deals, if you spent a little time on it you could save a lot of money finding all the right deals and packages. You could probably get this to drop another $100-200 if you really wanted to

Sorry if I came across as bashing your purchase... it's a good deal and a nice setup. Like I said when I can save $$ I'll do almost whatever it takes

Yea I know heh

Im not mad or anyting,

I was impatient and didnt care much. the deal seemed decent at first, so i said, 30 seconds after he handed me the list : lets go.

lmao

So I was expecting such thing

Anyways, Ill enjoy the new comp for sure!!!

ohai guys whats up o.o
