cheap budget comps (1 Viewer)

I agree with the comments on CPU prices dropping, especially with the introduction of the Opteron. However why are the current video cards 'crap'?

The current R300 Radeons and NV35 FX's are awesome cards that have greatly improved from the previous revsion of GPUs. Sure the next generation of cards will always be better than the current ones, but thats how technology improves and grows.

Agreed, a ATI 9800 is a ripper lol, except the price isn't

firstly GO ATi
secondly go here http://www.PlusCorp.biz

they are australian and allow you to configure and order online then pay when you pick it up. I used it for my pc that has had only one problem - me.

they are cheaper than most other places in everything except HDDs where adelong is better. But when you can configure the pc however you want (inc. case and diff PSU) then pay another AUD50 and have then put it together for you OR AUD75 and have them build it and install the OS then .....

they are good, intel and AMD.

If you buy a system outright, I think you get an 8% discount or soemthing. So if you are buying a system outright, piggy-back as much crap as you, your friends want. It's a good saving. (cheaparse dodgy asian style )
