guys we went thru this already

c. cod4 ched.

^well, what i asking is why wud he go with them.....

maybe they warranty the whole pkg? maybe they get better prices on the individual parts so it may come out close to building it urself? i dunno

Well I've been to newegg and several other popular websites to price out the parts and no matter where I go the prices just cant beat the system I can build from cyberpower. Its costing me a little over $800US for a really good specced system from them vs buying the parts individually comes up to over $1000US

TriniVdub there are always good deals lurking around dont be in a hurry as you will miss them, yes cyberpower is okish but as a custom builder there's a certain pride you get after powering up your creation for the 1st time.

Mind you, your gonna know ever nook an cranny making O/C etc easier as you know what you have

Thats just my 2cents

[M_2NR]

[Chiney]

nice review

wen i bench my 2 480s i`ll post a screen

then i`ll bench my 2 295s... and post a screen to

should be a nice comparison

[Virus]

Well i was just looking at my new mobo and processor combo i guess i will not be taking that 470 and 450 deal since its AMD platform i will just be sticking to a one gpu solution and no am not having thoughts of an ATI card/s, it was a good dream but most people who have tried the hack drivers are ending up in alot on instability which i dont think they will rectify too soon so guess its my bare 470sc in my new rig hopefully i can still post some good marks.

Am sad

Oh and the reason why am going AMD cause i want to give there hex core a try and dont have the loads of cash for Intel hex

[Chiney]

i see ur point..

well

who knows... maybe u mite see a gtx 295 in ur future...

[Virus]

Just read some great articles comparing the 470 vs 295 i must say that 295 is really hard to beat check this out
