| Hey hop, after watching your recent video on YouTube, I thought about showing you the pc I have, for a gaming pc it is extremely well priced. I can easily play BF3 on High graphics and on Ultra, however theres about a 10fps difference going from like 60 to like 50. but still awesome. http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/lenovo-k430-desktop-pc-17392871-pdt.html | |

^ But yeah that looks like a pretty awesome desktop Turkey ^^ I've just wanted to build my own PC and all my friends are down for helping me out with it, so I think I'd rather buy the parts and build it. TY anyways ^^. Amy - I'm expecting to blow about.... $1.5K on a computer that will last me a good amount of time, which translates to like £938. So yeah, definitely not looking to be cheap ;D | |

| Idk how you guys can use laptops or 4 years, mine start falling apart after 2 years. My last laptop got to the 2 year mark and I had sparks coming off it and keys falling off (The charger was broke so I charged it using wires connected the old adapters end and some of the wires sometimes slipped causing sparks). The one I currently have has just gotten to it's 2 year mark and overheats like a champion now, but no other issues yet! | |

Yeah, laptops are not built to last or be used like a desktop. They extremely lack the durability and strength of a desktop but the desktops cost a bit more (and usually have more power). If you're buying parts, check tigerdirect or Newegg for things. They're usually 50-60% or more of manufacturer prices (especially processors and graphic cards). | |
