I'm looking to buy a semi-budget gaming computer at some point in the next 6-months preferably. Few questions I had:
-Do I get vista if I buy soon or stick w/ XP?
I hate troubleshooting and don't want to jump into vista too early. But I could wait even up to a year for vista to fix itself if that's the best option.
-Any problems w/ Ibuypower.com?
I know enough to pick out stuff from computers but am too lazy to piece it all together/install the OS. They looked like exactly what I need.
My price range that I'm shooting for is 1k-1.2k, no monitor included. Don't see myself as an SLI person. Was thinking like C2D 6300, 6400, or E4300 (not sold at ibuypower), 2 gigs ram and like a 7900 gs gfx card.
Just wondering if it's a good time to buy now, or if I should wait for anything in particular. All I really play right now is WoW which isn't very hard to run on my current computer but I'd like to jack up the settings and run as many mods as I want w/out thinking twice.
Any advice on what to buy/not to buy is greatly appreciated. Sorry for such a broad post and thanks in advance for any help.
