Well sure there were a few people who had trouble with the PSU that came in the mail for them (probably more due to shipping and handling) but it wasn't nearly as much as a "hit or miss" situation as with other PSUs, like the one willdill suggested. Yeah red, probably considered the top online retailer for computer hardware and maybe software. Why don't you just get a good sized TV to play on instead of a monitor? |

| Ordered the 2nd half of my order from Amazon tonight--free 2 day shipping with Amazon prime Will arrive Thursday First half of my order from newegg had some complications with the shipping, but UPS was great in fixing it--will arrive tomorrow. Already picked up Hard drive and dvd drives. But the OS--its OEM build and not the full retail one--does that mean the license is tagged to the motherboard of the system and you can still upgrade parts, just not the motherboard or does it mean the license is tagged to the entire hardware configuration meaning you cannot upgrade anything? |

Well I technically am a closet colonel due to my ps3 player M16. I wanted to get the feel for PC again, I didn't feel like changing weapons and its what all the "pros" use now |

| Hey guys I have a question about choosing a GPU. My question is what is more important in a GPU the Core Clock or the Memory Size? ...and if you had to choose what would you prefer: Memory Size: 2GB Core Clock: 650MHz or Memory Size: 1GB Core Clock: 800MHz |
