    Okay, as most of you know. I have a very old pc and i need a new one. I have my eyes on a ibuypower pc for 549 dollars. I am currently saving up for it. And it has a quad core processor, 8 gigs of ram, 1tb hard drive, and liquid cooling system. Do you think thats good or do you guys recommened another type of gaming pc? Like cyberpower pcs or alienware? Cause i have my eyes on cyberpower. What do you think? Thanks guys :)

    Well, It depends on what you like. If you want to be a professional gamer as a career, I suggest Alienware. If you are just going to use it as an everyday computer, I suggest HP. If you are looking Torbor towards the business outlet, I suggest Apple. I suggest getting a desktop computer with about a half a terabyte of memory and about 32 gigs of RAM to the least. I also suggest Windows 8, as there is more support to it than any other area in Microsoft, and it's actually half decent.

    Just, no. No. Windows 8... ugh.
    And yes, I can judge it, I use it.
    I would do anything just to get windows 7 back.
    Microsoft facked up badly making windows 8.

    Okay...
    From a "I've done this a lot" standpoint...
    If all you do is Minecraft, surf the web, and don't really play any games...
    Then all you need is a 4th-gen i3, 8GB of RAM, and MAYBE a 500GB hard drive.
    No need for liquid cooling or anything.
    It's a big waste of money, honestly, if you're not doing extreme overclocking.

    If you want to go with CyberPower, here's a PC I took some time to configure.
    It contains everything I recommend for you, at a not-bad price.
