 |  Test Build I'm bored and I want to see if building really is better than buying. There are some Dells for 1-1.5k and I want to see what you guys can come up with. There are two options here: Match build for lower price OR better build for same price. The price is 1-1.5k. Here are the main parts: Q6600, any board (you pick) 3GB ddr2 667 or ddr2 800 250-320GB SATA2 HDD 8800gt basic cd/dvd burner no monitor need o/s USB KB and mouse of choice Good looking case like those Dell ones Have fun and show me the best you can do
