    You spent 1900 on that?? Why would you do that? You could've built it for less, and gotten a monitor.

    Why anybody would post a thread AFTER they bought the computer is beyond me.

    Processor: Costs to much compared to the Q6600 for a single .1 worth of GHz.
    Motherboard: The 780i chipset is horribly buggy, good luck with that...
    Memory: Should have gotten another GB or two of RAM.
    Video Card: Meh.

    You should have posted specs here, and you should have just built your own computer instead of buying one...

    Yeesh. It's better than my computer, but still... seems overpriced for standard-looking stuff.

    Look at the stats for my computer. I got all that for 2000. Built it myself.

    e: other than the 750gb storage drive, and the 15 inch dell monitor, but that thing was 17 anyways...meh, i got rid of it, stupid fucking block of a monitor.
