So a day or two ago I posted the specs on my Budget Gamer custom PC around the web, including my blog. On one forum, CustomPC.co.uk, the responses were really pushing me to do better. So I did. A LOT better, and here it is: The Budget Gamer, Intel Edition:

TOTAL: only $655.50!!

It's faster, stronger, AND built to last longer. Plus its a good bit cheaper than the AMD build (surprisingly!) One thing you may notice is that the new processor is only 2.53Ghz compared to the 3.00Ghz AMD. Well one thing, it's an Intel, and two, I've read many places that it's overclockable up to 3.00Ghz with NO voltage change and on air. Mmm-hmm...Anyway, leave me a comment and tell me what you think of the NEW Budget Gamer.

Note the Smilodon Case. A little bit superfluous, but not to special. With this Smilodon case, I, the smilodominator, will smilodominate any smilodomitee who seeks utter SMILODOMINATION!!!
