Im looking at 3 systems right now, and I dont know which is the best bet
Asus A7k
Asus G1S
I like the price of the first one, but I dont know how the turion compares to the intel, and I know the 8600 is better than the 2600, because they're both ddr3, will the performance difference be worth the extra $
the other system I was looking at is:
CyberPowerPC
with the system modified with a 2.4 core 2, and a 250 gig HD, bringing the total to around 1206, which is cheaper than all the others, but this one is from a less main stream brand, and the video card is only ddr2.
Which would you go for? Also if anyone has any other suggestions about systems, the budget is not much higher than 1600 including tax, and I would PREFER a ddr3 video card, and even an 8700GT if possible (i havent really been able to find any systems with the 8700GT, aside from a toshiba with a weak 1.8 ghz cpu)
