Looking for a New Computer?

Recommended Posts

Guest firehawk44

Anyone looking for a new system or thinking about upgrading some components might be interested in this excellent article at TechSpot -- the June 2008 PC Buying Guide (http://www.techspot.com/news/30644-techspot-pc-buying-guide--june-2008.html). I bought a "luxury, high-end" system last year so not in the market but was shocked to see a high-end system much, much better than mine now costs around $4000 compared to the over $7000 I paid just last year. I will definitely be looking at one of their future guides whenever I decide to upgrade again!Best regards,JimMy System:Dell XPS720H2C w/Dell 3007WFP LCD Monitor.

Guru3D is another good site for buyer's guides, although their last one is somewhat dated at Dec 2007.Gary

I agree Guru3D.com has good buyer guides. They also do excellent reviews of GPU's. What I liked about TechSpot was the fact they didn't try to go out and get all the latest and greatest stuff when it would mean almost a nil performance gain between the old stuff and the new tech.Jim
