Default Christmas 2006 Gaming PC Buying Guide!

Christmas is very close now. Don't settle for yet another t-shirt or more free kisses under the mistletoe. Get yourself a brand-new gaming PC!

If you think it's too expensive, think again. We will show you how to get it all for only $1010! Heck, we will show you how to get an SLI gaming PC for less than $1200.

If I'd waited less than a year before getting my new pc... This would've been it... And it would've TRUMPED my current pc at the same cost!!



Very nice guide tho'...

Almost made me change my mind about SLI...

'Affordable' is a very subjective thing

MAXLich! LICHard chai! ROTFL!

I guess it's considered affordable by U.S. standards...

Here [in Malaysia] affordable is more likely to be in the under RM3K range, like peaz said...
