so THIS is why half of d2jsp ends up with terrible AMDs?

you are WELCOME to come build an intel computer for 500 bucks that performs as well, i encourage it, you can keep your bitch attitude somewhere else though.

good luck having a decent intel build on a 550ish budget..
on another note; ncix based canadian build entry

e: ty saint!

nice build, you would want to change out the green drive, get a motherboard that is am3 instead of fm1 and you are good to go.

seems like it would be bottlenecks though? gl though on everything

I built a few last thread
the lowest end intel(g860) out performs EVERY amd cpu besides the 8 cores
there is no reason to run an AMD cpu based system unless your trying to do an APU build

You also picked a build with a 550ti which is pretty terrible for the price to performance

Anyway here is a sub 600$ build
I would swap in 8gb of ram for 10$ more but I needed to be under 600 before rebates so.



here is my poor mans build

both builds got horrible power supplies.

think you can do better? Post your own build then bro

nvidia has better support for blizzard games period. for 100 bucks you can get a 6770 that will max it, for 100 you can get a 550ti that will max it, and has better support for the game. i didn't arbitrarily just pick a nvidia gpu because it was worse $/performance..
i'm sorry but a g860 doesn't outperform EVERY amd cpu, i don't know where you are getting your information from but you might want to check again..

again feel free to disagree but please don't just make shit up.
