I'm buying a new comp and I have the choice between the following 2 setups. Can some people with experience tell me which whould gice the best performance with the lowest maintenance? I don't want to have to keep worrying about heat or drivers or compatibility issues. I want to hook it all up install my games and stuff and pretty much be set for a while. Thanks for any niput, comments, advice, suggestions etc. These two setups cost exactly the same by the way.
