Default Re: Building a Gaming Computer

I'm kinda confused, I don't get how that's a better build.

The processor I chose is dual core, 2.6 GHz, while the Intel one is only 2.0 GHz. Are Intel processors stronger than AMD or something?

Also, the board I picked out is a very good Asus board, which I would pick any day over Biostar.

The power supply picked out here is only 380w, but this graphics card has a minimum requirement of 450w. Wouldn't that be a dangerous move?

Otherwise this ATi card looks okay, but a lot of people are saying it runs very hot, and needs underclocking.

As far as cases go, I'm a sucker for a cool design and LEDs.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I'm just confused as to how it'll be a better build.
