This PC worth it?

[mikeward1980]

Basically I want a system that will play the newest games on or near max settings.
This is the computer I'm looking at ASUS Republic of Gamers Tytan Gaming PC (Intel Core i7-3770K/ 128GB SSD/ 3TB HDD/16GB RAM/Windows 8) http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/asus-asus-republic-of-gamers-tytan-gaming-pc-intel-core-i7-3770k-128gb-ssd-3tb-hdd-16gb-ram-windows-8-cg8480-ca001s/10227758.aspx?path=eeab732bac83cae30a8f0120e93b185fen02

Currently I have a laptop i73610-QM CPU 2.3 GHz 8 ram GeForce 630M

why a nas drive?
good parts other than that tho ;)

[mikeward1980]

how much is shipping and how long they take to build and send?

[_I_]

ncix is farily quick, 1-2 days to build, 3-5 days to ship
so about a week total, maybe 8-9 days if issues arrive


oops, should have picked a 7200rpm drive, is a 2tb ok or do you need more space?

[mikeward1980]

would this computer run games silky smooth?

[Rale]

most yes

[_I_]

could save about $50 if you dont need a bluray drive, else is very similar to the bb build
ram is 8g kit, vs 16g
8g is still overkill for most games
and the i7 is more for massive video editing
i5 is great for gaming
