NEW computer?

Go to the Tech-Forums Discussion Home Page



Posted by: pre_heated

Hi there Im in the market for a new computer and a while ago, a few minutes there came up a popup that had this really nice looking three screen desktop. but being dumb, I closed the window and didn't take note of it. any of you guys have any idea of where I could find this? that or of any other good gaming computers? I think Im just going to custom build it unless someone here can convince me other wise, thank you

yes the monitor. I just thought it looked cool and would be a blast to game on. but otherwise im unsure how ths would be of much good to anyone, hence my post on this topic board. but if anyone else has any ideas as to a computer I should look into getting that would be a great help to me, thank you

waste of money =-p

I think you'd be best to custom build a system that you will like.

As far as that 3 section monitor... spfd is right...it is a waste of money. Unless you want a "Norad" type room in your house.

lol, i have to agree.. the "grand canyon" disp is $8,500 and thats the low-end cheap one.:amazed:

hahaha yeha right just buy a nice 22 inch crt f u want big dont waist your money



Posted by: ThirtySixBelow

I agree, im not a fan of the lcd with its 60 hz refresh rates. You can be running at 120 fps and it will seem choppy. Get a nice 22 inch crt and run that at 160 hz, it will be smoove as a babys bottom

bah, its an athlon :P i would go with one of the new P4C processors, but alienwares are the best gaming PCs around (other than building your own blazing fast PC) and that monitor is such a waste, if youre going for big flat-panel display, get a dell 52" flat tv, they have VGA (the grand canyons only have DVI) and they are 1 single panel, and wtf are you going to do with 4 screens worth of space anyways? now, correct me if im wrong, but wouldnt you have to set your screen res to 1280 x 1024 MAX for most games? if so, you could only play games on one panel anyways

Don't buy alienware, they look good and work great. But they are ridouclously overpriced. It will be better i you build a computer yourself



Posted by: ekÆsine

the only thing extreme about that Aurora™ Extreme is the price. would have to agree with Meck or go to [url]www.ibuypower.com[/url] and [url]www.cyberpowerinc.com[/url]
