Second Protip: The 5850 wasn't just $30 more at time of purchase, and one has to draw the line somewhere. If one keeps uping the parts, one pays far to much. The 5830 is fine, you sillys.

Yeah the 5850s seem to be in shorter supply and price has risen recently. But a while ago, I saw the average 5830 at 220 and the 5850 at 270. Now there actually is a 100 dollar difference so the 5830 does well. Still Anand actually recommends the GTX460

Holy hell you people thought I was serious. How could you possibly think that. I was pretty obvious.

No, that comp is a beauty. I picked it out myself, so that Nem did nothing retarded like buy a $1500 Dell with 8GB of ram, an i7 quad core, 5TB of space, and an Intel integrated graphics chip. Cyberpower PC is the best comp company I have come across; it can be the same price or even cheaper than building it yourself up to the 1200 level. I won't spoil the cost, but really, it was a good buy.

Protip: Gaming laptops suck Ghost. Anything more powerful than a basic Optimus i3/i5 laptop is much to much.

Its pretty hard to tell sarcasm on the internet, as theres no way of implying tone really. I agree on Cyberpower PC being the best computer company around though, mines a cyberpower too. Tech support is very good as well.

The final price was $1200 exactly with shipping. Scope's estimate is curiously close.

Scope is a winner, He has never lost anything in his entire life. He clearly one this contest too!

....and I'm sure others would agree

No, I disagree most entirely with your statement. I'd say he WON, rather than one.

I've lost the game several times

Not to mention getting my ass handed to me back in my short-lived ShW days.

But honestly, I guessed the price using my current knowledge of hardware prices then knocked a hundred off to "bundle" the price.
