Would you be willing to simply build it yourself? For $1500 you should be able to piece together a nice setup…

Just as a quick example,
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2WDj2

That will be far superior to either of the above systems and allow you to max out all current games on the market with ease. Although, it does not include a copy of Windows, but you should be able to pick that up for an additional $60 – $90.

Cool Thank You for the info and part list on a build its bin a long time since I built a pc so I’m a bit rusty
And yes I also play other grafix intense games
Also do you know any good sits for building a pc
I have heard about
http://www.ibuypower.com
And
http://www.cyberpowerpc.com
But I don’t know how good of a rep they have

If you absolutely don’t want to build it yourself, I would go with CyberPowerPC as my personal preference. Have seen far too many issues with iBuypower.

I would still advise building yourself really, but it’s up to you on that front. For the exact same setup that I showed you (including case, etc. even), CyberPower offers it for $1,928 with $75 shipping and no operating system.

Nearly a $500 difference just to have it prebuilt, just seems like a waste of money to me is what I’m getting at. For the build I gave you, you could take off the Samsung 840 EVO SSD and replace that cost with a copy of Windows, but in all honesty I can’t stand not having an SSD in my main pc. It’s like using a quality mechanical keyboard when you’ve been using rubber domes most of your life, the switch to mechanical is absurdly amazing.

Anyway, if you do indeed play many graphic intensive titles, definitely take a look at the GTX 780, it is the current best for price/performance @ around $500 for reference boards.

Cool Thank You I will build the pc my self with the build you gave me with jest a bit of changes

I’m looking to buy a new prebuilt desktop for GW2 on or close to max my budget is around $1500
I don’t like Toshiba, and Hp
I prefer the brands Asus and Acer ( I don’t want water cooling ) also I would like it to have an intel i7 and a Nvidia graphics card and windows 8
And I prefer to buy the pc in person or from frys.com or best buy.com
So far I have narrowed my search 2 Thea’s computers

I also have no problem with upgrading the power supply

And Thank You ahead of time for your help

I know this option isn’t exactly ideal, but if you cannot/will not build the system yourself. Frys has a service bench that will build it for you. I think they only charge 119/hr to do the build (2hour’s is about what they ‘should’ bill you) that includes OS setup, Drives, your AV solution, Testing/benching, and burn-in.

that way you can use pcpartspicker.com to pick out your build. Print the sheet out and take it to frys and have them build it for you.

they will also price match against the parts list if there are NO rebates listed (so deselect the Rebates when you choose your parts).

So, if you did not want to do the build yourself, but wanted the best value for the cost. that is what I would do.

Cool Thank You I will also look into that
