Good Morning All!
And then there were two! - I’m undecided in-between two systems and it looks like it comes down to processors and graphics.

I5-3330 1gb Nvidia GeForce GT640
Which one would you consider to be better for gaming (Diablo 3 to start with). All opinions welcomed! ((:
Thanks!

I would go for the Dell without a seconds hesitation.
That AMD cloner....if that came into our shop for service...we'd all chuckle at it for a few minutes and whoever got stuck servicing that computer would dread it. It's a cheaper "clone" box.
The Dell is backed by a warranty that I know I'm comfortable with....it starts at just 1 year..but at least I know it's decent. The Dell has an Intel CPU, I'm not an AMD fan...constantly notice more issues with those cheaper AMD backed computers because other components tend to also be cheaper and of less quality.

I agree the Dell is better. AN Intel CPU is a much better choice right now over AMD, and the 640 Nvidia card should be better than the AMD 6670, as well as being a newer generation.
Stonecat, iBuyPower isn't really a cheap cloner. They make a variety of enthusiast and gaming rigs. My biggest beef with them is usually the obnoxious looking cases.

Brick and mortar you moron. **** off.Borradeds wrote: To really make the nearly all of your games budget, wait half a year before getting games you would like. Normally, dollars were hit twenty by major releases within five weeks. At that price, you can find three times the games you may if they were got by you at their start date and price.Always check several different stores before purchasing a game. Make sure you look both online and in real stone and mortar stores in your area. The cost of a video game will vary widely, particularly if a game isn't brand-new. By carrying out a little extra knee work, you can get a game for a steal.Game On the webUnderstanding How Games online Cheat Limitations WorkPractice makes perfect! The more you play a game, the better you'll be. The more walkthroughs you read, the greater prepared you'll be for every level. Watch videos of others playing, or study articles about their activities, and you'll find you easily master games with little effort and disappointment.
