Which computer should I build?
I’ve got the power supply, and the case, but need most everything else, and our computer guy at work is building me a new one, and gave me two options. The first option was about 600 bucks for the video card, RAM, motherboard, and processor, and the second was the same video card but different everything else for about 400 bucks (he said the cheaper one was the better value)
the more expensive route was this

and he said I could pick out any harddrive I wanted to so I was thinking this for a harddrive

What do you think? Would the more expensive route be worth the extra money in terms of speed, and overall quality preformance of the computer, or would it be worth saving that extra cash? Is the harddrive a good one? 1 TB should be all the space I’ll ever need. I’m basically gonna be doing everything on the computer. Web surfing, downloading video and songs, storing all my photos, bunch of movies, and music on it, and playing all my computer games on it, some old ones and some new ones.
Any advice here would be greatly appreciated, and big bonus points to the best help, Thanks!!!

If you can visit any of the refurbished computer shops, you can get imported used desktops at a very attractive price. There is no use in assembling systems with available components. Today or tomorrow you get into trouble.

Main difference is in the processor. The cheap build uses a cheap dual core which will be the bottleneck. Many modern games are now optimized to use 3 cores and GTA-4 and Battlefield Bad Company 2 can use 4 or more processor cores. Thus the first build with a powerful quadcore would be the better performer and more future-proof for gaming. The fast GTX 460 won’t get bottlenecked by the Core i5-760.
The more expensive build would be better for the long haul.

Robert asks…
Ipod question, downloading music and so on.?
So I have one of the “movie” Ipods and I haven’t added any new music, When I got it my computer wasn’t compatable with Itunes or whatever, it wouldn’t let me download it. REALLY OLD COMP. Any way, I have a new one and I want to add some new music to my Ipod ( my brother just put whatever was on his computer from his music library on to my ipod) any way I was wondering if I have to go through I tunes or if I can use other sites. My buddy I think uses Lime wire, but im not sure. Im not very familar with this type of thing. Im going on vacation in 3 weeks and really want to up date my Ipod, there is some music I want taken off and I want to add about 50 songs, just to start. Any help and suggestions would be really appreciated!~
Nagesh answers:
I always use itunes – any “free” way to download is illegal and hurts the music industry.
With that said , , , if you or any of your friends have the actual cds, you can simply copy them into itunes. Private use only, of course. You can also hit your local library and borrow and copy those cds.
I think the prices at itunes are moderate, personally. And, if you only like one song by an artist, you can get that song only for 99c.
Just depends how far you are willing to go.
