Baby and Toddler Computer Games, Bad for Kids Just Like TV?

Q. There have been some advice not to expose babies and toddlers to TV because it affects their attention span. Are baby / toddler computer games potentially harmful in the same way too?

A. All I can say is my son watched the TV and played on The computer(leapster or educational games on the PC) from about 2 years and my daughter even younger because of seeing her brother doing it. my son is now 4 and is reading writing and doing simple maths. Most TV and computer games amid for the younger child are educational. As long as they are not doing it all day every day they will learn from it.
Just be careful what you pick out for them to watch or play, Ben ten for example would not be a good choice in my opinion!


should my computer run games smoothly on a 42" HD tv in 1080p?
Q. i wanted to know , should my computer be able to run games smoothly on a 42 inch flat screen tv
in 1080p HD? (games like Cod 6 or black ops , gta iv , dirt 2, WoW) pls give answer for each game if you think will be diff for each,
here are some of my specs:

Processor:
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q8400 @ 2.66GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.1GHz
Memory:
4096MB RAM
Hard Drive:
660 GB Total
Video Card:
ATI Radeon HD 5770

thank you :).

A. The TV QUALITY MASTER the " smoothly ". because the display / image via TV.
42 inc FULL HD 1080P TV ?
42 inc 1080P LCD TV . standard models with only 60 HZ refresh rate is really bad for fast moving image because of " motion blur ". , any sports movies / games-fast action image can never be ' smoothly " .
http://www.lcdtvreviews.org.uk/articles/relevance-of-response-time-in-rendering-picture-quality/
42 inc high end 1080 P LCD TV with lower response time display panel / 120 HZ refresh rate helps to cover-hide away " motion blur ", is not totally cut it off , but make more " smoothly ". more comfortable to our eye.
42 inc Plasma is PREFECT in SMOOTH pictures and colour display . 100 % with out motion blur . due to 0.01 response time and 600 HZ refresh rate.
new Panasonic Plasma technology with out burn in / over heat issue. even long for still image / games . lower power consumptions and 60,000 hours life time.
Plasma also " cheapest " in $ .
42 inc LED TV ( LCD -LED BACK LIGHT ) , Those quality brand ,Samsung / Sony / LG / Sharp / Panasonic very close to Plasma SMOOTHLY , but cost much more in $ .
REMEMBER. you need quality TV if you take it as ' monitor ",

What benefits does playing video/computer games have in real life?

Q. I have a speech in which I talk about the benefits of videogames for 4 minutes. before you assume that I am expecting u to do my speech for me, let me just say that I have already done the speech. I just feel like i dont have enough benefits and i would like some creative ideas. if you could also state sources that wud be nice too

A. Research has shown that playing video games increases hand-eye coordination and improved general reaction time. Some studies suggest that avid gamers can recall specific patterns better than non-gamers, since many video games require problem-solving and decoding.

I once conducted a study in one of my Psychology course in which I tested the item-finding capability of gamers versus non-gamers. Even though each participant never played the video game in question, gamers found a specific item in the level significantly faster than non-gamers. Some of this could be attributed to the fact that gamers are better accustomed to "sniffing out" items and objects in a virtual world.

Video games have also been used in chemotherapy regimens, as the cancer patient's focus on the game reduces (or eliminates, in some cases) the nausea caused by the treatment.

This is a small glimpse into my past research, though it is probably more than enough to flesh out your four minutes.

Good Luck!


I need help building a non-gaming computer.?
Q. I do alot of stuff on the internet, mutiple(tons) of programs up at once, downloading and watching/listening to music and videos, dvd burning, photo editing and 2d CAD modeling. In the future I may upgrade to 3D modeling program.

What things that are top technology and needed by gamers would be useless for me. I really want to get the cost down. But i can't stand waiting for my comp to catch up. my current comp has 1.86 processor, 2 stick of 512 ram, stock video card...................
With my current Components it looks like about $850-900, but i think its over kill.
XFX GeForce 680i LT SLI or Intel DG31PR Motherboard

Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2.66GHz Processor

XFX GeForce 8600 GTS Video Card - 256MB DDR3, SLI Ready, PCI Express, Dual DVI, HDTV, Video Card(this may be overkill for what I need??)

4096MB Dual Channel PC6400 DDR2 800MHz Memory (2 x 2048MB)

160+GB Hard Drive - 7200

600-800watt power suply
$40-60 case
I already have 2 dvd burners

Also what is the cheapest and best operating system to run and where to get it?

A. You and gamers have more in common than you realize; both are resource intensive.

The secret of a reasonably fast box is through-put. That is, from the CPU to the screen and speakers you need a fast and constant speed. You don't necessarily need the latest or fasted, jut that all you components match so there is no bottleneck.

I suggest you start with a gamers box and modify it to what you need.

You'll need:
A solid power supply - 500 watts.
A 2 core CPU <3.0>
2 GB RAM 800/600
A graphic card with al least 320 on board VRAM express
A 300 GB HD, 7500
Sound card and speakers of good quality.

You may like to investigate the various Linux multimedia OS, there are several and since they are free using one will allow you to spend more money on hardware.

Whats a good gaming computer at a lower price?

Q. I'm looking to start diving into PC gaming. I'm not very smart on computers, nor am I rich. I'm just looking for a good quality computer at a lower price that can run: The Elder Scrolls, Battlefield, Counter Strike, Minecraft, etc. Can anyone think of any computers? Nothing expensive like Alien Ware, at least 700 dollars.

A. If you want a cheap computer, you're going to have to assemble it yourself.

Here's a prebuilt one though.

Really good gaming laptop?
Q. Hello everyone,

So I'm currently looking for a new laptop, and I want a good gaming laptop this time. The price range can go to max. about 3000� (about 4000$). I don't mind how big the laptop is (except if it's literally huge). I've checked out a few laptops, like "Alienware 18" and "BATTLEFIELD IV LAPTOP COMMANDER 780", but I'm not exactly the biggest expert in gaming laptops, so that's why I'm asking for help/suggestions/recommendations.
The biggest "aim" for the gaming laptop is playing Skyrim on Ultra graphics, with mods and without lag. I currently am able to only play Skyrim on low graphics without mods, otherwise the game lags too much/crashes.
So, the question: which gaming laptop is the best?
Extra: I want a laptop because I generally move a lot around my house and use my laptop in different parts of my house (sometimes in my room, sometimes in my living room, etc.) I also visit my dad quite a few times and a laptop is simpler to bring around than a desktop.
more extra: just because I bring it around doesn't mean I want a small/thin/light computer. I actually prefer bigger laptops. I don't mind bringing heavier laptops around.

A. OK. Be aware that at the price, performance is a huge amount lower than a desktop PC setup, and you may want to add an LCD monitor, gaming keyboard and mouse, in a place you use it most and work usb and HDMI when stationary so you can get an improved setup in a usual location.

As you get higher in performance, you pay a lot more for the increase in performance.
The price point you are at should represent a very high performance laptop, most likely one as custom made for you.
The general gaming performance will be determined by the graphics processor, and may be 2 GPUs in SLI.
That, you can look up here:
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Games-on-Laptop-Graphic-Cards.13849.0.html
The cpu is assumed to be a full laptop voltage Intel quad core. i7-xxxxMQ or i7-xxxxQM.
You can use the CPU processor ranking,
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Mobile-Processors-Benchmarklist.2436.0.html
Generally, over 8GB RAM does not help much, if at all unless recording gaming.
SSD's are a plus, and evaluation of the LCD by pixel density and color gamat can be a big factor.
Using as a reference Far Cry 3 as a high cpu game, and knowing that extra CPU power over the requirements does not help very much:
http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=883&game=Far+Cry+3&p_make=Intel&p_deriv=Core+i7-3610QM+4-Core+2.3GHz&gc_make=Nvidia&gc_deriv=GeForce+GTX+780M+SLI&ram=8&checkSubmit=#systemRequirements
i7-3610QM or higher is enough, but you can push it up more if you want. Focus on the GPU more
PCSpecialist has the 17.3" Vortex IV E3D as their top end custom:
http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/notebooks/vortexIV-Elite-3D/
17.3" 120Hz 3D Matte Full HD LED Widescreen (1920x1080)
i7-4700MQ haswell i7 quad core

1TB SEAGATE HYBRID GEN3 SSHD Drive, SATA 6 Gb/s
DVDRW
ARCTIC MX-4 EXTREME THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY COMPOUND
8 Cell Lithium Ion Battery
Genuine Windows 8.1 64 Bit - inc DVD & Licence
plus a few others, and this can be further upgraded in a few areas.
The price is £2,447 delivered the way I show it.
You may want a laptop cooling pad, computer case, other extras.
http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/
http://www.utopiacomputers.co.uk/?module&id=custom-laptops
Or, will check a Dell Alienware 18 giving a bigger screen.
£2,804 gets a bigger screen but I don't think it is as good in performance. CPU, graphics, RAM, battery about the same. A little lower end HDD as 1.5TB RAID 0 (2x750GB 7200RPM) + 80GB mSATA SSD Caching, may have better wireless by a little bit. Has HDMI input.
More expensive, but I don't see it as better.
It is resolved the graphics should be NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M SLI, and CPU a Haswell quad core MQ or QM suffix, and a fine set of specifications. I prefer the quality of a custom. You can search overclockers and a few others, but I lean to the PCSpecialist, and if you want to push a few specs higher you can, but gaming does not improve as it is the top GPU of laptops, an adequate CPU to cover any game, adequate RAM, great 3d display, hand done premium thermal paste, large solid state drive and an extra large additional storage, etc etc etc.
The laptop should perform around a GTX 780 desktop pc as noted by the notebookcheck and this:
http://www.game-debate.com/gpu/index.php?gid=1759&gid2=880&compare=geforce-gtx-780m-sli-vs-geforce-gtx-780
and this should match it also
http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/827

Adding: You show Euro, I show UK. You do not state your country or where you can get custom laptops. That is as close as I can get to you.
The 2447 pounds is 2873 Euros plus shipping if they ship to you.
The 2804 dell is 3300 euros
I think you are in Germany, and you should be able to find comparable or import from the UK.

Building A gaming computer?

Q. Hey I'm mark and I want to make a gaming computer, I have NO idea on where to start but my step brother is going to help me out once I got all the parts I need. Now I only have a budget of $600 or so to make a good gaming computer from scratch. I need to know, What to get, Where to get it, And if it can run on windows 7 64-bit. And also could I take my current computers hard drive and move it into my new computer, it has 500gb of memory max.

A. My first gaming computer cost about $920, and it can still run just about everything on max settings. With hardware prices coming down so far, you could probably build an ok system for near $600, you just need to know where to get your parts. Having the hard drive already helps a lot. newegg.com has never done me wrong. Great prices and very well organized site with a trustworthy rating system. Click "shop all stores" and go into "computer hardware", then find all of the individual parts that you need.

To build a gaming computer you need the following:
Motherboard
Processor + heatsync
Power Supply
RAM
Hard Drive
Disk Drive
Graphics Card
Case

-I've built computers in the past around processors. For a Gaming computer I recommend at least a 3 core processor at 2.8ghz+. The processor and the graphics card are the two parts you should spend the most on. A processor will almost always come with a heat sync, but if you want to overclock your processor you may want to add a custom cooling unit (I do not generally recommend this). If you wish to run either mac or Linux on your computer along with windows, I recommend an Intel processor, but if you only want to run windows, I recommend AMD. The only real benefit you would have in spending more on an Intel would be compatibility with Unix based OSs, which are useless for gaming.

-Next, I find a motherboard that has the appropriate processor socket that lists support for your processor Wattage and type. There are usually too many components to a motherboard to be too specific, but just make sure it's compatible with what you need and has a good rating for its price.

- You may find a motherboard you like and choose RAM to go with it, or find RAM and choose a motherboard that is compatible with your processor. The higher the number of the ram's DDR, the faster it'll go. Standard at this point is now DDR3, but some computer run as fast as DDR5 or more. For a gaming computer I recommend no less than 6GB of RAM, but for most games RAM requirement is not very high.

- The Graphics card is the most crucial bottleneck of your gaming computer. They're very complicated and have many specs. You will probably spend more on the card than on your processor. My graphics card is 1GB 256bit DDR3 NVidia with 700MHz core clock speed and I'm able to run most new games on max graphics settings. Normally you can trust the reviews of how good a card is, but you'll generally get what you pay for. Just make sure you have the right PCI port to run the card you choose. Also make sure you get one with the outputs you need, HDMI, VGA, or DVI.

- Power supplies can be complicated, but newegg has a great feature that calculates the wattage you'll need for your computer. It's under "Computer Hardware", the last option on the far right, "Power Supply Wattage Calculator". Fill out the info, get your wattage, find a high rated power supply with that wattage. easy-peasy

- Don't spend too much on a case, just make sure your stuff will fit. parts are usually the right size, you just need the right number of ports for hard drives and disk drives. If you have an existing case you want to use, go for it.

- Get a disk drive, a burner might be nice, not a big deal.

- As far as the hard drive goes, just format the drive to wipe all the data and it shouldn't give you too many problems. You might have to find a SATA cable to hook it up to a new motherboard if you don't have one.

- Most new hardware will just run 64 bit by default, but you'll want to verify that your processor will run it. If it's 3 cores or more, it probably will.

Good luck!


Tips to Sim's 3 Computer Game?
Q. Any Tips on the Computer Game Sims Three?

A. hire are some use full tips :

Easy money
Start writing novels on your computer. Write fiction novels as they take the least amount of time. They will not bring you too much Simoleons. When you write, your skill will automatically advance. If your skill is high enough, you will be able to write more novel types/genres. The most money can be made from "Romance Novels". You will get royalties for six weeks once you finish a book. With the "Writing" skill maxed out, you can make approximately 40,000 Simoleons every week, which is more than the 34,800 Simoleons you can get by purchasing all neighborhood businesses, and takes less time to achieve. In three game weeks you should have a very high speed writing, 9 or 10 novels as best sellers, and 100,000 Simoleons.

Saving money
No matter how many times you use an object, if you sell it the same day you got it you can get all your money back. If your Sim is poor and needs body points or something else, buy a body machine and keep selling it back to get a refund of all your money.

Easy Cooking, Fishing, and Gardening skills
This trick requires a TV with a Cooking, Fishing, or Gardening channel and a video game system. Have a Sim sit down and watch television. Switch the TV over to one of the previously mentioned channels so that the Sim can start earning his or her skill point. Then, have a second Sim go over and start playing video games. Notice that although the TV is displaying video games, the first Sim still has the skill meter above their head. Allow this Sim to sit there for as long as they please until they decide to do another activity of their own. After that, the skill meter should stay above their head until you start another Cooking, Fishing, or Gardening skill activity. As an added bonus, you can train two skill points at once. For example, work out and both the Athletic and Cooking skills will continue to rise. If you keep repeating the steps until each skill channel has been viewed, the Sim will keep learning the three skills as he or she goes on about their daily life, and four when doing skill activities.

Free bookcase skills
Buy a bookcase, then have your Sim begin to study. Interrupt the action so that the book is placed on the ground. Sell the bookcase. The book can now do everything the bookcase could have done for free.

Increasing chance to have baby boys
Have a pregnant female Sim eat apples to increase the chance of having a boy.

Increasing chance to have baby girls
Have a pregnant female Sim eat watermelons to increase the chance of having a girl.

Increasing chance for multiple babies
To increase the chance of having twins or triplets, have one or both parents have the lifetime reward of Fertility Treatment.

Making friends
Buy a guitar. Play it to learn how to play guitar. Keep playing until you reach 5/10 level, which gives you the ability to "Play For Tips". When you have that ability, go to the park with the guitar in your inventory. When you are in the park, click the guitar in your inventory, and select "Play For Tips". People watching you will become your friends if you keep playing. The higher your guitar skill, the faster they will become friends with you.

Disable aging
Instead of using a cheat code to toggle "aging on" and "aging off" like in The Sims 2, you can de-activate the age in "Game Options" under "Options". When you uncheck the box next to "Aging", your Sims will no longer become older. You can also slow aging down in this menu by setting the "Lifetime" bar. It can be set from 25 days to 960 days.

Avoiding death
Go to Pleasant Rest Graveyard. Near the gate is a bush called "Death Flower Bush". Harvest the flower from it, and keep it in your Sim's inventory. If you die, that Sim will give the flower to the Grim Reaper and be resurrected. Although the flower will not reappear there again, if your Sim has Level 7 Gardening, they can plant the "Unknown Special Seeds" found in the graveyard and some other places that have a chance to grow as a Death Flower. Note: Having the Green Thumb trait to revive the plant may help.

New clothes
To get new clothes, you first have to buy a dresser from "Buy Options". Once there, click "Plan Outfit". You can put a total of three different clothes for each type (formal, every day, athletic, etc.).

Strange faces
There is a glitch in Create-A-Sim mode that allows to you to make very strange faces. Go to the face designing area. Select a face part such as the eyes, and max out all the sliders one way or the other. Then, go to a different face part, and select one of the predesigned parts. Return to the eyes. The sliders will have reset to the middle, but the eyes will still look the same. This works for all of the face adjusting tabs. You can then continue to max out the size of the eyes and repeat. You can make eyes the size of dinner plates, very long cheekbones, huge noses, and more.

Hording pizza
Have a Sim call for pizza. When the pizza deli

is this a good computer tower for gaming?

Q. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/POWERFUL-HP-Desktop-PC-Tower-Computer-2x-3-0Ghz-4GB-RAM-160GB-DVDRW-Fast-Small-/110829205010?pt=UK_Computing_DesktopPCs&hash=item19cdef7612#ht_4844wt_1056 And i will add a 1gb graphics card, will it be able to run games like fifa 12, bf3, mw3? If not could you find me a better one for the same sort of price? Thanks

A. Gaming is quite simply a no.
A look through the components:

Pentium 4 HT - 3.0Ghz - CPU
The processor is a 2005 processor, while gaming is not the most processing intensive activity it does require at a good processor, normally Core Quad or better.

RAM - 4GB
The RAM is average for a desktop computer, I'd recommend 8GB or more if you want it to run games fast without running out of memory.

Hard Drive - 160GB
Okay, the hard drive is pretty small most games take up around 5-10GB of space maybe more or less depending on the game type and year. Some will also be taken up by the OS and other software you want to install.

DVD-RW Drive
Nothing wrong with that.

And a few notes, its running a 32 bit OS meaning you'll only be able to use 3.5GB of the 4GB of RAM.

Adding a 1GB graphics card will boost the graphics, but it won't be able to make up for the slow speed of the processor or the fact that you'll run out of memory if you install a few games.

At the price your looking at most computers won't be able to play games, if your looking to play games your better off looking at new computers in a PC store the ones on eBay at that price are going to be old machines not gaming computers.


What's the Best Gaming computer Tower?
Q. What's the best gaming full size computer tower that looks cool and can fix ATX X58 motherboard? thanks

A. There actually is a gaming computer that is really cool online. I like it because it looks cool, but at the same time it can play EVERY PC game ever made, and has all the functions of a regular computer, such as playing CDs and DVDs, and getting internet access, and having microsoft word. I like this computer because you can customize it, and the amount of GB and ram it has on the computer is amazing; more than enough ram to support an ATX X58 motherboard. Check it out here!

http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/Gamer_Xtreme_XT/

I also really like this computer because it has cool blue and black air conditioning vents on the side, and can even play blue ray discs! You definitely won't be disappointed with your purchase. Hope I helped!

Where to buy a gaming computer?

Q. I want to buy a Gaming PC but i don't know where to get it and i wont to know trusted places because some of them don't look professional. The reason i don't wont to build one is because i don't wont to mess it up and be out the money and still not have a PC. ( Not Alien ware because they are a little over priced)

A. A gaming computer is something you build, you don't just buy one from a store, really.
It is not at all hard to build a gaming PC, even a 13 year old kid can do it, and I've seen lots of them here that did just that.
Very detailed instructions are available if you Google on the subject, even Newegg.com has video tutorials on building a PC.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPIXAtNGGCw&feature=player_embedded
Buy all your parts from Newegg.com or Amazon.com, they are the cheapest

All branded computers sold in stores (Dell, HP, Lenovo, Sony, Acer, Asus and such) are not 100% fitted for gaming, as the manufacturers will always try to use the cheapest hardware they can find and sell for the highest profit possible.
Even if one such computer has a good processor and graphics card, it will most likely have a cheap motherboard, with an older model chipset. Also all branded computers are setup by the manufacturers not to allow for any overclocking, as it will mean a loss for them to fix or replace damaged hardware while in warranty.

Here is a complete list of components to buy for a very good to best gaming PC build:

All prices are in $USD, from newegg.com, and current as of April 2012.

PROCESSOR: Best budget processor: Intel Core i3-2130 ($150) - best budget 4 threads, dual core processor.
Best value and performance processor: Intel Core i5-2500K quad core ($220)
Best in class, price accessible processor: Intel Core i7-2600K quad core ($320)
CPU COOLER: Get a good after market processor heat sink and 120mm fan. The stock Intel CPU cooler is crap.
Either a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO or Sunbeam Twister 120 - Cost $35 to $50
Or you can get a water cooler, like Corsair H60 or H80 ($70 or $105)
MOTHERBOARD: For any processor above, get a motherboard with socket LGA1155 and chipset Z68, at least this $120 GIGABYTE GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128495
MEMORY (RAM): Both the processor and the motherboard feature fast dual channel memory, so only buy RAM in identical pairs, to enable dual channel memory operation.
Get an 8GB dual kit (two x 4GB) DDR3 1600 G.Skill Ripjaws X Series or Corsair Vengeance ($50)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231428 (8GB two x 4GB)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145345 (8GB two x 4GB)
GRAPHICS CARD: at least a GeForce GTX460 Fermi or AMD/ATI Radeon HD 6790 (or better), choose any with a 2200 score or higher from this benchmark list:
http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
The best graphics card would be GeForce GTX680 or GTX580
HARD DRIVE (HDD): 1TB Seagate Barracuda or Samsung Spinpoint SATA III (6.0Gb/s) 7200rpm, 64MB Cache hard drive ($115)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840
PSU: A good power supply, 600 watts or bigger (depends on the graphics card you choose), 80 plus certified form Thermaltake, Enermax, Cooler Master, Antech, Corsair or OCZ.
PC CASE: Any PC Case (full or mid tower), with bottom mount for the power supply, either ATX or μATX (micro ATX) size.
I recommend either any of the Sentey Series (Sentey Extreme Division Arvina is what I got) or Cooler Master HAF ($60 to $150)
http://www.newegg.com/Store/Brand.aspx?Brand=13670&name=The-Sentey-at-Newegg&Tpk=Sentey
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&N=-1&isNodeId=1&Description=haf&x=0&y=0
OPTICAL DRIVE: any cheap $15 to $25 DVD multi writer drive
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM for your operating system ($100):
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116986

Cost: From $800 on up to over $1500, depending on processor, graphics card, power supply and case you choose.

A good, full HD 1080p (1920x1080), LED backlit 27inch monitor will cost you around $260 to over $300.
Any cheap USB mouse and keyboard for about $30 to $50, or spend more for expensive gaming style ones.

Good luck.

The only other viable solution would be to custom order a gaming PC from places like AVADirect, iBuyPower, CyberPowerPC and such. They will build a gaming PC with almost all specs of your choice but you will pay considerably more as if you build that yourself.
DO NOT buy Alienware, they are Dell crap and also way overpriced.


What the cheapest gaming computer u bought already built in 2011/2012?
Q.

A. As you're probably noticing anything specifically labeled as a gaming computer tends to have a ridiculous price tag attached to it. Systems like Dell's Alienware are often going to be double what a traditional computer costs. The cheapest gaming computer I bought already built is one where I picked a very cheap model and had the hardware hand selected to meet my needs. Nearly all companies give you the option to select a computer and upgrade the processor etc. Always remember that a fancy case does not make a great gaming computer. In fact much of the time people are really paying for more of the case and the name than the actual hardware. This is why building a computer or selecting the parts and having one constructed for you is quite a bit less expensive.

Your next best option if you don't want to spend the time consulting someone on what specs are the best to have is to just shop for one of the new Ultrabooks. This is a new genre of computers that Intel hatched that are portable but meet a very strict set of specs which are much more performance based. Computers like the Macbook Air fall in this category which can handle gaming online very well but still are priced at around a grand or less.

The final option you may want to consider is a refurbished computer. Many start to cringe when they hear the word refurbished but the thing is that nearly every major manufacturer now offers the same warranty as a new computer. The discounts can be pretty substantial and with a solid 1 to 3 year warranty you can't go wrong. Just ideally stick with one of the main outlets and not a fly by night company that isn't affiliated with the manufacturer. They generally don't have the latest testing and certification equipment as well as don't have the best warranties.

Is this a good desktop computer for gaming?
Q. Ok there's this Lenovo Gaming desktop I found on Ebay, refurbished, I really like the specs for the price but as a gamer we all know brand made gaming computers usually don't last as long as a custom built one, but can anyone take a look at the specs, the graphics card, GPU, clock speeds etc. and tell me if this computer is good for gaming, recording YouTube videos, livestreams etc. or should I invest my money on something else?

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=281100738716

PS: this will also be a computer for college, homework and stuff as well

A. it doesnt have a graphics card, it only has the intel integrated graphics.
If you want a good pre0built computer for the price, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227469 is almost unmatched.

It will run all games easily on med-high settings at 1920x1080.
Its one of the VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY (idk how much i can stress the fact on how EXTREME RARE this is in pre-built) that this actually comes with a decent case and power supply.

It has a corsair cx430 psu, which is more then enough for this set up, and its a decent quality psu that is 80+ bronze.
And it has an nzxt phantom 410 case, which is a pretty awesome case, though maybe alittle overboard for this price range computer.

and it even has a b75 motherboard, as opposed to h61 on alot of other prebuilt ones. though ofcourse its a really cheap motherboard ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157362 ), but a prebuilt coming with a good case, psu and motherboard is like non existent, until atleast $1500+ range and even then its still rare.


the best part about it, is the price. If you were to build this yourself, it would cost probably about the same, if not more. If you went crazy combo deal hunting and promo code hunting, and wanting for sales, ofcourse you would probably save like $50-75.

and with any prebuilt, you probably want to do a fresh install of windows, and also get the latest drivers from the motherboard manufacturers site. Also you may want to update the bios, as on prebuilt they often tend to use old outdated bios which cause alot of problems.

Good gaming computer (laptop)...?

Q. What is a good, hopefully cheap (although the odds are slim) laptop that can play a wide variety of online multiplayer games? I personally love Combat Arms but my laptop here just froze up on me as I was typing this (as of right now, I hate Windows Vista with a passion). I hear "Mac" being tossed about, but what do you guys think? Thanks for your help.

A. Here's my list and comments on gaming pc's.

One of the best gaming PC makers is Alienware. Some games even recommend using Alienware PC for their games. You can browse their selection @ http://www.alienware.com/ . Their Laptops are high powered with the latest nVidia graphics card with Core 2 Dual (some have quad). They may be a bit pricey --however-- their desktops are amazingly cheap and very good! They let you get a dual stack of 1GB nVidia graphics cards (latest), 4GB DDR3 RAM, Intel Core 2 Extreme! (Extreme = 8x while Dual = 2x) that is 3.1 ghz (> 3ghz), liquid cooling, 4 TB RAID drives, or ultra fast HDDs with 1,000 rpm (instead of 7,200 rpm), and cool lights. Some of these options may be available for laptops, but the best is for desktops (better and cheaper, with some under $1,000 while the better under $2,000, the the best are higher). There actually is a desktop with a 3.86ghz Intel i7. This is my personal favorite of all gaming computers. The HP gaming PC's aren't as good and are expensive. Some other laptops that are cheaper might be Dell (Alienware owned by them) or HP.
But nothing beats the power of Alienware.
I currently have a Dell Dimension 8250 (extinct), 2.8 ghz Pentium 4, 512 ram (oh, what a shame), nVidia 7400, Creative SBL!, and a microscopically small HDD with whole 8 gb! This PC is great at running games on. Tremulous is great. World in Conflict is moderate. Yadda yadda yadda. This is a moderate PC. Still, the best is Alienware, which I have seen do the best graphics.

A mouth full but there might be others out there, but this is the one.

Oh yeah, just remembered. nVidia has a standard tower-sized pc that is actually a super-computer. It has 960 cores, multiple GPU's, and is bloody-fast (up to 250 times as fast as a regular PC). Not recommended for just gaming but, if you get it, you might just be the person with the fastest gaming pc in your town, city, or even state. http://www.nvidia.com/object/personal_supercomputing.html

Yeah, Alienware is my choice. Desktops are cheaper but laptops are also good. Dell has cheap laptops that work for gaming. The nVidia Tesla PC should be used for crazy/insane/rock-hard gamers. Just listing the best. Might not be what you want, but hey, someone just found a list of the best gaming PC's out there.

And the mac things, they don't have good games. CoD, Fallout,...
No offence was meant by this to anyone with a mac. If they do have good games, I would love to hear them.


Just listing. Hope this helps someone.

Laptop computer for gaming?
Q. I've been toying with the idea of getting a laptop for gaming mainly. I'd likely use it for work some too, but just about any computer can handle Microsoft word and a browser. The game I play the most is The Sims 3 and I use their Create A World tool both of which can be very demanding programs. I occasionally play other kinds of action/rpg games as well. I don't like Mac's so I'm only interested in a PC and my price range should stay under 1,000. I know that I can google around and look at sites myself, and I have, but I'm hoping that someone here may be able to give a suggestion, a review, cautionary tale...etc.

A. I would definitely recommend an Asus laptop because they are known for there gaming laptops and their dependability, but they might cost too much.
Check these out: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung+-+Laptop+/+Intel%26%23174%3B+Core%26%23153%3B+i5+Processor+/+17.3%22+Display+/+4GB+Memory+/+500GB+Hard+Drive+-+Red/Black/9728443.p?id=1218161511080&skuId=9728443 It's a Samsung, and I know they might not be the best laptop company, but look at the specs, very good.
Or I would also try this one: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Asus+-+Laptop+with+Intel%26%23174%3B+Core%26%23153%3B2+Duo+Processor+-+Black/9556125.p?id=1218124208054&skuId=9556125
These are also very nice: http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/series_can.do?storeName=computer_store&landing=notebooks&a1=Category&v1=High+performance&jumpid=in_R329_prodexp/hhoslp/psg/notebooks/High_performance
These are your best bet for finding you dream computer.

Gaming computer laptop?

Q. I was thinking about selling my macbook an getting a good gaming computer. Price isnt a big factor but hopefully under 3k. I would also be cool if it was like a name brand one with as good costumer service as apple.

A. I'd get either an XPS, or go with a macbook pro and dual boot windows and mac os x w/ bootcamp, so you could use windows for gaming and mac for everything else on the same laptop (I use a mac at home and I prefer them). Apple's customer service is unrivaled. You WON'T get anything that matches them. Period. I know you know this, but I'll still explain it for anyone else. You can bring your computer right up to the genius bar at one of their stores and they will fix it for you whether it's something simple like a broken key, or a worse problem (they've done so for me on numerous occasions). Just be sure to get a decent graphics card. I would definitely get the pro and forget about your macbook since the low end has non-upgradeable integrated graphics that would suck for gaming. You'll want a machine that will play next year's games as well as today's.

alternatively, you could build your own windows book for a fraction of the cost (and a fraction of the experience, imho anyway, but you'll still be getting a great gaming machine)
it all comes down to your preference

Also, you could just keep the macbook and get a desktop for gaming. It's more cost effective; do you really need to game on the road?


laptop/computer to create a video game?
Q. hi my boyfriend writes stories and plots
and he told me a while back that he would like to make video games and his birthday is coming up and i have no clue about what type of laptop or computer would be good to build games, or program so please any help will help me thank you so much.

A. You don't really need any special computer to make games unless you are gonna make your own models as well, if you're making a 3D game that is. You could probably go to newegg and get almost any $500 desktop and it will be able to use the programs needed to be able to make games.

As far as programs used to make games here is a good list of some. http://makegames.pixelprospector.com/

The one you choose depends on what kind of game you want to make and how much programming knowledge your boyfriend has.

For decent programming knowledge you can try Unity or Unreal. Unity feels kind of limited to me, but maybe because I'm more use to starting straight from scratch with regular C#. Unreal I never got to far into because it is mostly for fps type games. Unreal can make a world fairly quick though, but once again never got far enough into Unreal to try coding it in.

For very little programming knowledge try Game Maker or rpg maker. I've seen some nice free games made in these, but they can be expensive if you buy them.

As for the other programs listed on that site, I haven't tried them out so explore them to see what could be best to start with.

While using computers what tips are suitable to youngsters to avoid backaches and strained eyes?

Q.

A. Lots of screen time? Good posture helps
With young people spending hours a day on computers and other e-devices, experts offer tips to avoid backaches and strained eyes.

By SUE STOCK, Charlotte Observer

Last update: March 11, 2011 - 10:33 AM

For today's students, life is all about staring at a screen. ¶ They spend hours doing homework, playing games, chatting with friends, reading books and just hanging out -- all on computers, smart phones and e-readers or tablets. ¶ And doctors say they're starting to pay the price: in eyestrain, neck pain and wrist aches. ¶ "Kids have a limited degree of awareness, so they'll just play and play until they're exhausted," said Patricia Smith of Triangle Eye Physicians in Raleigh, N.C. "You've got to parent up and limit the amount of computer time."

But that's not always easy. The portable nature of most of those devices makes policing online time a challenge.

Tiffany Edwards of Apex, N.C., said she thought her 14-year-old son, Torin, spends two to three hours a day on his electronic devices, which include a computer, an iPhone and the iPad he got for Christmas.

Ask Torin, however, and he said it's closer to five hours a day.

He's starting to have some neck pain, but he doesn't think it is related to his iPad. His mom, however, is not so sure.

"I notice it through the day, him just wiggling his neck around trying to relieve some of the pain and things like that," she said. "I don't know what the solution is. It's not like they're not going to use the devices."

On that they can agree. Torin says he's not going to scale back his computer use.

But doctors say that talking about online time and setting boundaries is important because too much time staring at a screen can cause health issues -- particularly on children's eyes and backs.

Here are some tips to avoid problems:

Make sure your child is viewing the computer at his or her own height. A child sitting at an adult's desk will be looking up at the screen. This exposes more eye surface, increases the rate of blinking and can lead to eye fatigue more quickly.

Take note if your child is complaining of dry or itchy eyes. Sometimes kids can develop "dry eye syndrome" from staring at a screen and not blinking enough.

Watch for excessive eye rubbing. Kids who are heavy eye rubbers can actually damage their corneas.

Make sure that when your kids take breaks, they are not simply moving to another screen-related activity, like watching TV. Encourage them to go outside, play a game or do something else that does not involve a monitor to truly give their eyes a break.

Find a chair that supports the lower back and sit up straight.

Computer for Gaming!!!!!?

Q. How come many poeple said that buying a gaming computer is $1000 or 800$ but hw come i see alot of deals with good specs on newegg and evn skitscape said on youtube you can buy a decent cmputer for 500 for example i see this
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229304

A. Well Alex, the build you listed isn't good for gaming also due to the fact that it has a crappy GPU.

Decent computer is very subjective, it depends on the user's intended tasks. But for a gamer, a decent computer is a GAMING BUILD that is at least capable of playing all games on mid settings with good FPS on a lower resolution like 1366 x 768 or 1280 x 768, thus this type of GAMING PC is called an ENTRY LEVEL GAMING PC.

basically, here are the parts of an entry level gaming PC:

I3-2120
4 gb RAM DDR3 1333 mhz
H67 mobo
500 gb HDD
HD6670 GDDR5
Casing
500W branded PSU (OCZ)
DVD writer
usb keyboard and mice
monitor (1366 x 768 resolution)
windows 7

As far as I know, these parts would be around $700-$800.

Switching Diablo 3 computers?

Q. I purchased Diablo 3 on another computer. But now I got my new one. How do I download the game to this computer? It only gives me the option to install the client:( Help please?

A. were did you get game from? some places online are account based and so you go to that site and redownload the game. if you have the cd you should be able to download it onto your new computer. if you got it online i would send a message to that company who you got it from thru there forums and ask.

i know steam and orgin(ea). once you get a game you have unlimited downloads. being that in order to play you have to log into the account first. (if not playing online then you can play the same game on all computers) you just have to log into steam in offline mode. as far as online goes steam only lets one computer on at a time.

as the guy above said even if your friend does not have it installed you can still install it. (just takes longer then from a cd) and you can then play it. when you leave your friends house just make sure to delete out your login pw. or make sure he does not know it, and he wont be able to play unless he gets his own key.


Gaming computer upgrade for Diablo 3.?
Q. What should I upgrade according to specification down below. May you add priority from highest-lowest considering gaming performance. I would like to prepare for Diablo 3 when it comes out even though they are lenient on computer hardware! [Holler ;)] I added my specification down below with some comments if you may answer them. I do not want to upgrade if its not necessary, but my computer does not handle fall out 3 when there's to many people. Just to give you a visual where the performance is at. lol. (Btw, I'm still new to computer building, and do not want to rush and waste money! thanks!)

Also, can you tell me your computer specs and what components you're using specifically? I want a computer bad-ass as you.

The main component

AMD phenom II 940 quad 3GHZ [Upgrade?]
Cheap value 4 gig ram [Q: Does cheap or quality ram have any affect on performance? Ugrade?]
WD Green 32mbcache [Q: Would you say this hard drive bottle necks my performance? Upgrade?]
Nvidia GTX 260 [Q: I have heard bad things about this card. Upgrade?]
Cheap motherboard [Q: Does the Mobo have any affect on performance? Upgrade?]
Corsair 850 Watt PSU

A. Most of your computer specs are reasonable, but they're a bit dependent on each other. That power supply unit is a beast and is good enough for anything but the most insane computers. Here's the issues I see from least to most important.

Hard drive- WD Green is a bit slow, but if it's reliable for you, then it's not a serious issue. You might take a bit longer for loading screens and starting the game up, but not too much and in-game performance won't be an issue at all. You'd have to be on a cutting edge system for this to be a bottleneck.

AMD Phenom II + Motherboard- These go hand in hand. Your processor should cover most stuff, but it's starting to age and the top end games will give you a bit of trouble. Make sure your motherboard is from a reputable brand, that extra $20-30 is important. You could go for an AMD A-series chip, but the Intel Core i7-2600k is one of the best deals on the market right now. The Core i5-2500k is reasonable if you need to keep to a budget.

4 gig RAM- Cheap RAM does cut performance a little, and 8 gig is the new preference. Thing is, you really shouldn't be seeing any problems here either unless you're running way too many things at once or play around in Photoshop a lot. You can get a reasonably nice 8 GB kit pretty cheap these days. I'd at least keep this in mind if you built a new comp.

Nvidia GTX-260- Yeah. You gotta replace this. There's just no way around that. GTX 570 is top notch, Radeon 6850 is the best mid-budget card. Both of those will show serious improvement.

Honestly, you should be able to get by with what you have for Diablo 3, although I'd highly suggest upgrading that graphics card. The processor and RAM should be sufficient, but check your system performance and make sure nothing is eating up memory in the background. Keep a watch on Newegg too. If you get the graphics card and want something more, you can often find a good 8 GB RAM kit there for $50-60.

Addition- My own system specs

I run a Core i7-2600k processor on a Gigabyte brand mobo, 8 GB RAM, WD Black 1TB, and a Radeon 6850. There's a reason I suggest what I do. That system was built months ago, it still runs everything at top quality without any hesitation, and it was easy on the wallet.

When trying to improve gaming performance, it�s important to optimize the graphics card settings, the overall system performance, and the in-game graphics settings. Before trying any of these tips, you should first check the system requirements for any game you�re trying to play. If your system doesn�t meet the processor, graphics card, or memory minimum requirements, then you have an issue that these tips won�t fix and you�ll need to look into upgrading your computer.

INCREASE VIRTUAL MEMORY:

Virtual memory is hard drive space that is set aside for use when Windows runs out of physical memory. By increasing the virtual memory, you can ensure that your games have access to all of the memory that it needs. Most newer computers have 2-3 GB of disk space set aside for this, but some slightly older systems (with smaller hard drive) only have 512MB-1GB. As a general rule, I usually put it around 3GB. To change this, go to the Control Panel > System > Advanced > Performance Settings > Advanced > Virtual Memory Change. Then, change the amount and click Set.

UPDATE VIDEO CARD DRIVER:

Updating the video card driver can not only improve gaming performance, but it can also fix issues that are known with certain games. To update the graphics card driver, I usually find the manufacturer�s website and search for drivers directly through them. That way, I know that I�m getting the best, most current release of the driver.

SET VISUAL EFFECTS TO BEST PERFORMANCE:

Graphics settings are governed by both the graphics card driver as well as the Windows operating system. You can adjust the Windows settings to display effects only when it won�t have a significant effect upon performance. To make this change, right click on My Computer > Properties > Advanced Tab > Performance Settings > Visual Effects Tab > Click on Adjust for Best Performance. You�ll notice that this is the same area that you go to adjust the virtual memory.

ADJUST SHADOW DETAILS:

Adjusting the amount of shadow detail in games can significantly improve performance. This can be done in each game, but first you can make some general shadowing changes through the graphics card properties panel. This will vary between graphics cards. Generally, you can access them by right-clicking on the Desktop and choosing Graphics Properties. This can make a huge difference in gameplay, but you will be sacrificing some of the visual appeal of the game.

CLOSING OTHER PROGRAMS:

This may seem like a no brainer, but it helps to have all other applications closed when playing PC games. Any program that you can close will free up resources for your gaming. Every little bit helps. So, close those browsers and torrent applications before launching your game.


DISK DEFRAGMENTER:

Use some sort of disk defragmentation tool to clean up and organize the files on your computer on a regular basis. I prefer using Diskeeper 2008 instead of the free Windows one, but either one is better than nothing. Defragmentation occurs most commonly in files that are accessed frequently. You can imagine how fragmented game files can get, and over time, that will affect the performance of the game.

DISABLE ANTI-ALIASING:

This feature can be turned down or disabled altogether to increase performance as you are essentially decreasing the visual effects of the game.

ADJUST EACH GAME�S SETTINGS:

Each game will have it�s own list of graphics settings and options. You want to try lowering these settings as little as possible, but in some cases, you may need to lower them all the way to get a playable performance. In this way, you are adjusting each game to run better on your system. Optimize your system settings first, and then adjust the game�s video options as you must.

GAME PATCHES:

Some games may have issues with certain video cards, so the game manufacturer�s oftentimes release free patches to improve stability and performance on top of in-game features. Some games will do major updates automatically, but in many cases, you will need to navigate to the manufacturer�s website and download the patches manually.
UPGRADE GRAPHICS CARD

One of the most obvious solutions to poor gaming performance would be to upgrade the graphics card. This, of course, costs money, and some older systems may not be able to be upgraded to the latest and greatest cards. I would say that if your PC has a PCI-express slot, then any upgrade you do has the potential to be very worthwhile. I would recommend buying from online computer retailers such as NewEgg and Tiger Direct, as they offer much cheaper prices than physical retail stores.


Hope you like it.

Thank you.


How to improve framerate on computer games?
Q. There is a game I bought for myself today, called "Chivalry: Medieval Warfare." I downloaded it through Steam, but I am currently encountering one game-breaking problem- THE FRAMERATE SUCKS. I don't normally experience this, so I turned all the visual settings down to the lowest possibilities to help improve. It improved it a bit, but I still cannot experience any good gameplay until it gets fixed. I have deleted a lot of old games off my computer to try to improve on this, and it still hasn't improved.
Do you have any suggestions on how to improve the fps?
I already have used it without any other tabs open, and have already reduced the quality to a minimum to attempt to improve it. Also, I have played offline custom matches and had the same framerate problem.

A. FPS can be improved with having better internet connection. Another way to increase it is lowering graphic settings down to the lowest and allocate more memory to it. You can also go to task manager and make sure that there aren't many task running only keep important stuff on thats the most i can help with.

hi have successfully downloaded games from yahoo but when I go to open it freezes my computer help!!?
Q. The games downloaded alright and then when I double click on them it shows the busy icon on my mouse and then the computer hangs, freezes up and I have to manually switch off. Have updated java, tried switching off the virus protection etc. Can use shockwave fine... anyone know what to do!?
thanks for advice so far have tried virus checks all well... I paid for one of the games.... is it something to do with my fire wall? It is a wireless laptop running windows XP

A. I might be too late, but for the games you haven't bought yet, try downloading them again from a site with better support than Yahoo. Two good ones are Game Socks (talking socks) and Big Fish Games (the big green fish).

They have all the same games as Yahoo.

http://www.gamesocks.com
http://www.bigfishgames.com/index.html?afcode=afd64f20f3f8

Game Socks lets you play games you buy on all your computers and reinstall them.

As for the game you bought, email Yahoo support and hope for an answer because I hate when I buy a game and I can't play it.

Is this a good gaming computer for the price?

Q. Now it's only $470 so im worried it might not be good. I was wondering if I could play battlefield 3 on medium (possible high). and other games like skyrim far cry 3 crysis 2-3 call of duty black ops 1-2.
Here are the specs
Motherboard:ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 AM3+
CPU: AMD FX-6100
RAM: 4GB (DDR3 !333 MHz)
Video card: EVGA GeForce GTX 650 (1GB)
Hard Drive: Western digital blue 500gb (7200 rpm, 16mb cache)
Power supply: 430 watt
Oh I put a ! point there sorry I meant to put a 1 but I was holding the shift key lol. It's suposse to be 1333 MHz not 333.
I can't upgrade to a i5 but I can upgrade to a AMD FX-8120 how much better is this processor then the AMD FX-6100?

A. That is a steal at that price if it comes with Windows 7 or 8 installed.

The FX-6100 is a low-to-mid range gaming CPU, that will be capable of playing on medium settings. The difference between the six-core FX-6100 and the 8-core FX 8150 is not that big during gaming, as gaming cannot utilize more than 4 cores. Here are real-life benchmarks for gaming processors, the FX-6100 is comparable to the FX-6200 so use that as your reference:
http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu/display/fx-8350-8320-6300-4300_6.html#sect0

The Graphics card is the primary driver of gaming performance, and the GTX 650 is considered by many to be the gateway into the mid-range of gaming GPUs, along with the Radeon 7750/7770. They are around $100 retail, and offer decent performance.

Of course, a GTX 660 or 660ti would be better, but you won't find a computer for that price equipped with anything near that. I have a GTX 570 and play skyrim flawlessly, and it is not nearly as good of a card as the 660ti.

I would get that computer, it is a great value at under $500.


Computer for gaming.?
Q. I have about 1200$. What type of computer can I get that will run new games like BIOSHOCK or Orange Box smoothly? I know I want at least 3 gigs of ram, or else enough money to spare to upgrade it.
Thanks

A. I think $1200 is not enough. I recommend you build your own.

My Ultimate Gaming Computer Value?

Q. Hi im 13 andi have just finshed building the Ulitmate Gaming computer which i hope will crush every other gaming pc on the market.
I would like it valued based on knowledge or research, fewer guesses if possible.

Here are the specs:
Motherboard (used) GIGABYTE GA-P965-DS3P $117.50 (aud)
-Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4 GHz processor $254.99
-OCZ ATI Crossfire 2GB (2 x 1GB) X2 (4GB All up) ($57.99 - $20.00=37.99 after mail-in rebate) $87.14
-Antec 900 ATX Steel Black Case $119.00 (79.99 after $40 mail-in rebate, $9.99 shipping)
-Antec TPQ-850 ATX12V / EPS12V 850W Power Supply $199.00
-SAPPHIRE 100221SR Radeon HD 3870 X2 1GB $436.48
- WD 500GB HDD + Pioneer 115 $179.00(aud)

-Total in Australian dollars $1386.81


Please note all are in us dollars except for the ones specified as aud ( mobo and HDD and CD/DVD reader +Writer) and mobo is used but is relatively new, bought from ebay.
HDD and CD/DVD from local shop and rest from newegg.com

I'm in aus btw so if values in aud!

A. thats so good i wish my rents would have let me do that instead we baught a lame 2 grand computer which gets destroyed by your system


Good gaming computer?
Q. Does anyone any good gaming computers in ireland, i really want to play arma 2 but my computer cant play it and i want a new one

A. The best value is building one or having a local shop build one for you.

Here's a nice pre-built system:
http://www.aria.co.uk/Systems/Gaming+Range/Cyclone/Gladiator+CYCLONE+Vortex+MKIV+Intel+3.50GHz+Gaming+PC+?productId=50324

However you have to add £72 for a copy of Windows 7 ot be pre-installed.

Or you can buy a custom gaming rig from Cyberpower PC. I recommend starting with this:
http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/system/weekly_sales_II/

Then choose the following upgrades:
Graphics card - Radeon HD 7850 or 7870
Power supply- Corsair 650W (NOT Cooler Master)
Operating System - Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit


Arma II performance:

http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2012/03/05/amd-radeon-hd-7850-2gb/3

If you just wanted to play on high settings instead of ultra, this would do fine:
http://www.aria.co.uk/Systems/Gaming+Range/Cyclone/Gladiator+CYCLONE+Decimator+MKIV+Intel+3.30GHz+Gaming+PC+?productId=50323

Of course you'd still need to add £72 for Windows.

A. Why aren't you an employee at THQ?

We need people like you, with similar ideas!

Bravo i say, bravo! i'd buy that game for sure! =D

But in all honesty, if they incorporated that into the latest installment, then there probably wouldn't be the need for future SvR titles, because they'd have done everything.


Got a Concussion a little over a week ago.. Possible Problems?
Q. Nov. 25, 2012 I hit my head on a concrete wall while standing on a chair.. My head has been hurting me ever since. It doesn't hurt as bad as it did but my boyfriend says i toss, turn and whine at night while im sleeping and im slurring my words. Should i go to the hospital or is this normal?

A. While going to the hospital wouldn't hurt, they really wouldn't be able to do much except confirm the fact.. which is fine if the symptoms are bad enough where you can go to school or work.

If you had a bleed you'd have already shown worsening symptoms or died.

The head pain is common, means you still have a concussion. Feel free to take something like Tylenol for the pain. Try to stay away from computer/cell phone/video games. Don't exercise.

Take breaks from whatever you're doing if your headache gets worse. If for some reason things start to get really bad, or you start feeling nauseous, blurry vision, hit your head again, then go to the hospital.

Good Gaming computer for WoW?

Q. My current computer is 10 years old and just Straight up SUCKS. I want a up to date computer that won't make me stay at under 20 fps average.

A. I would recommend an Asus tower or a Dell XPS (or a custom rig, which are always the best), but you can get WoW to run decently on pretty much any new consumer desktop, since it has very low system requirements. I would recommend at least 3GB of RAM and a 2.2GHZ CPU (Dual Core at least) to be able to play the game decently. Of course if you want it to run beautifully you can always go grab something with a new overclocked hexcore processor and about 10GB of RAM and a good video card or two. But to get over 20fps all the time you really don't need anything that amazing.


Better Gaming Computer for WoW?
Q. Can you please give detail in your reason why one is better than the other? This will be for gaming only nothing else.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229219
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229218

Thanks in advance

A. Intel i7 950 has higher results in most synthetic benchies, and generally faster in games. Not many titles can use all 6 cores, while Intel has Hyperthreading too if required anywhere. On the other hand having real six cores is always a plus for the future, and in second one video card is better, and it's cheaper $100.
But Cyberpower is not a great company, they have issues, especially with assembly quality and cheap parts sometimes. I prefer Centaurus Computers - sometimes more expensive but well worth it. They overclock CPUs like crazy - pushing both 1090T and i7 950 to 4.0GHz in most cases, and then you will see what't real performance looks like. Ask them about any promos, or even if they can match those prices.
Good luck
