I give up! My home made gaming box has crashed for the last time. i'm fixing it and putting it out to pasture as a network/printer server. there, THAT'S a relief! now then...
As a reward for finally letting my baby go (it was the first computer I ever built all by myself) I'm treating myself to a new factory-built (and warenteed) box -- and a SWEET one at that. so the questions are, for those of you who wish to chime an opinion in:
1) Falcon NW or AlienWare (I'm leaning toward falcon at this point) --any other vendors y'all like?
2) AMD Athlon64 3+ gig chip OR...intel 3+gig chip. I'm traditionally ann AMD man myself, but i hate how hot they run... the rest of the components I'm pretty settled on. i'd just love to get opinions from the forum I trust and respect the most, so have at it!
