Poll: Left or right? Right (iBUYPOWER) (12) Left (Gateway) (9) 21 total votes Your vote: Left or right? It seems to me that the one on the left has better traits overall... except for the graphics card. Do you think that this is bad enough of a failing point to warrant going with the right instead?  | ||

Seems like the iBUYPOWER is a better buy because you can actually run decent games such as... sc2 on it. | ||

Well it has a PCI-e x16 expansion slot so I'm pretty sure it'd support a video card. I think it's funny that the office pc has 6GB RAM though, seems excessive. | ||

The one on the right looks setup and ready to go, but the one on the left is better in almost every category... its just the video card. | ||

On the other hand, the i3 + 6 GB of RAM beats the A II 250 + 4 GB any day. | ||

go into one of the many build thread and ask for some help putting together your own comp. its REALLY easy, all you do is connect like 5 components, if you can dress yourself, you can put together a computer...there is no soldering or hacking involved..lol if you build your own it will be 3x better for the same cost. | ||
