shopping for computers

my mom is gonna buy a new computer soon and whats needed is one that is very powerful, and can play rome: total war and the sims 2 (among other games) real good.

 

alienware is usually the way to go if you're going for a gaming box.

(build your own, even better)

 

No fucking way! They make excellent systems, but they're seriously overpriced!

 

build your own, if you don't know how then I'm sure you must know someone who does...

 

You're too used to mixing with geeks. Most people don't know anyone who knows dick about computers.

 

lol, I think you might be right there, I blame it on the working environment

 

I suppose the most important things to look for would be the RAM and graphics card, also make sure the hard drive isn't too slow.

 

www.ebay.com has good systems that are usually custom made and neer overpriced. I got my 3 ghz gaming comp for about 1200 there. fully suped up an everyting. go there b4 u even look at dell or any of that bs.
