What kind of pc should I buy strictly for gaming and internet use?


Question by makeitso1960: What kind of pc should I buy strictly for gaming and internet use?
I am a Mac user but pc offers more games and online games that I can access. I’m wondering what my cost would be for a pc.

Actually, good PC hardware is not so much cheaper now – Apple narrowed the difference in price. What makes you think that Apple don’t make PC’s?

Equivalent quality might be had from IBM hardware, but it doesn’t have the same style – and your PC will be completely unable to run Mac OSX.

I looked into this last year, and to buy the gaming rig I’d be interested in would be around 1500, for a nice big iMac, the price was 1700 (with a slightly smaller graphics card).

It’s worth the little extra for MacOSX – so your internet browsing is worry free, and if ever one of them fails to boot (does that happen with OSX the way it does in Windows?) then you can always reboot and choose the other.

Remember also, with a normal PC you sit and watch BIOS booting for 20 seconds before you get to the stage where you turn on a Mac…

Can anyone possibly tell me – why would I get a thumbs down for this answer?

  1. Strictly for gaming huh?????? Lol. Anyways you are gonna need the big heavy duty ones that have tons of memory in them for like 1200 dollars. Or I don’t have one like that but I have the Sims2 installed in my computer and just as long as you have memory you can install games on any computer. Like one time I had almost every sims game on my computer! But it was quite slow. Another thing you could do is upgrade the memory by purchasing it at some computer store. But you need to remember that your computer can only take so much memory upgrades sometimes you can only upgrade to about 3 KB or even 5 KB. SO yeah any computer can really install games in it.
    HOPE THIS HELPED!!
