I just my took computer back, as the hard drive was skipping(always fun) and now I am looking for a new one. Anyways i am looking into buying parts and putting one together but i don't know about that. I have about $1500 Canadian before taxes and i do like to do a lot of gaming and graphic design.

Well in the end my request is, suggest some good computers, im willing to put it together so a collection of parts will be fine as well.

If i put it together ill post pics.

No help yet? well this is what i had before.

fuck HP.

dell is alright.

dont do emachines or gateway. they're shit.

what are you looking for?

Im looking for something that can run games like oblivion and battle field 2184 ect. Its also going to be used for graphic design.

QFT. Dell is actually pretty good for a price/performance balence. Have a look around their site and build a machine - you'll need something with half-decent graphics if you want to play games..

I dont know hp seems pretty good, and that computer seems like its pretty damn awsome.

HP is decent at best
Dell is good
Toshiba (think they only make notebooks though, maybe?) is a good brand
Acer is shit
Gateway is shit

Google some reviews on a rig before you buy. Best advice I got for ya

HP's support is patchy at best. It's a good machine but when you're buying new it's a good idea to think about what happens if it breaks too. Why are you so set on this machine when there are loads more out there?
