The higher priced one is probably partly due to be Intel. I'd just caution in the case size so make sure it's adequate. Video cards are getting pretty large and create a lot a heat. Iv always preferred full towers just for the space and airflow, helps with cooling but I don't use coolers either, just fans. jointz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may even decide to build your own PC on specs you desire....that is always fun but not always the cheap option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Just don't skimp on your power supply. Think ahead and grab one that exceeds your power needs for future tech and get a good quality power supply. Stay away from the super cheap high watt power supplies. KaptCrunch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
