Well, I don't want to steer the thread towards a bad case of OT, but many Apple models aren't "overpriced" nowadays. iMacs surely aren't, if compared with comparable Windows all-in-one. BTO expansions, on the other way...

Yeah, a new iMac bootcamping would actually be the equivalent of a giant Windows laptop with Sandy Bridge processor and a great LAPTOP graphic card (6970m)... but stuck on a wonderful but huge and too-high-resolution monitor... yummy still.

I'm starting to think that maybe the most sensible thing could be to build a dedicated gaming pc and keep my Macbook Pro connected to the same monitor via hdmi, just as it is now. Sure, the Mac part would not be as fast (by a long shot), but windows gaming would fly... (I'm thinking about a 570...

Well, actually Bootcamp is a way to install Windows on a dual boot partition, so when you boot into Windows you are on a "real" Windows machine. I see your point on time & money, still. ^^

Is there maybe someone that consistently games on his iMac - as is to say often in a Bootcamp partition? As you may have read in my previous posts on this topic, I'm an Apple user for general computing, but I like gaming A LOT. I don't have that much time but I'm really an enthusiast of...

...or I could go with a dual PCI Asrock Extreme4 and start with a 570, planning on adding a second one later... ^^

Just a last check before I click the BUY button of DOOM ;-) Assemblaggio e Test PC ? 35,00 Hard Disk Interno Samsung SpinPoint F3 1TB 3.5" 7200rpm 32MB SATA2 HD103SJ ? 41,20 Case Midi Cooler Master 690 II LITE ATX Pure Black ? 77,00 Masterizzatore Interno Sony AD-5260S 24x DVD/CD SATA Bulk...

Tnx Kabutos! I'm thinking about dropping the SSD and install it later, when it's cheaper...

You're right, I put in 800w just to be ready for a possibile SLI in the future... is it not worth it? The Vertex 3 rox butttttt.... it's REALLY expensive, 40-50% more than the crucial. :-( What about this OCZ Agility 3...

I'm considering staying with P67 as a mobo and building on an Asrock Extreme4...

Hi guys, I already asked some days ago in the wrong thread, so I'm reposting to have your take on a new build. ;-) Thanks for your patience and help. I'm an almost total noob who wants to build a new gaming pc, having sold his e8400 / 8800 GT. The monitor is the LG W2363D-PF, so 120Hz...

...oh right, that chipset does not support triple channel, so... ^^ sorry!

....and here it comes a cheaper alternative! :-D

OMG thanks that's a lot of data to digest... :-) Is triple channel better than dual channel? 8 gb dual vs 6 gb triple? 1000w PSU... wow. ^^ And Sandy being worse than previous architecture... now that's interesting, I'll search something about it.

Yeah, Hyper 212 should be a great heatsink but still... my shop does not have it in stock, and since I'm planning to have them build my pc for me I'd rather choose one that they have in stock. What about this? CPU DeepCool Theta 400 Socket Intel Good advice about the PSU... thinking about it...
