Alright people I have had endless problems with my 5 month old dimension 8100 so thanks to some great arguing from a family member I am gettin a full refund. Now I need a replacement fast being in college and I can't get another Dell. My computing needs are internet, game playing like Madden 2002 and Max Payne. I watch downloaded Video a lot too since I have ethernet. I am gettin a KLIPSH 2.1 sound system and Id like to save my parents some cash with this 2400$ refund. What is a system with monitor Preferably flat screen for 1700$?
I am getting real pissed because I have minimal knowledge and I keep hearing SD ram sucks with a P4, but all the P4's being sold at stores Have SD ram.
I have looked at Sony and Compaq and I think I would probably go with a VAIO right now. My only worries is that is only expandable to 512 mb ram. It is the 1.7P4, 256mb, 80 gb model.
The compaq i was lookin at was the 5000 series.
I really don't want to put a computer together on my own, nor do I want to deal with a small local retailer just because I keep seeing these places come and go every month.
for the monitor I would prefer a 15'' flat, because I love the one I am using, but if anyone has reasons why i shouldnt go flat i want to hear.
I am open to suggestions, but I am really leaning towards a high end best buy type system.
Thanks A MILLION for your help.
