That's an expensive case? It looks pretty cheap to me. I'm pretty sure that's also a normal keyboard made to look flashy.

That's just the thing, both of them are cheap too. I'm saying they should have gone even cheaper on both

why do people consider amd better then intel? both are good for different things.

because the best intel cpu is better than the best amd cpu

high end intels are better than high end amd.

amd is only good for budget pcs

amd to intel is like comparing a Ferrari to a rocket ship

There are some cases where AMD is better, but for gaming, Intel manages to win almost all the time, even when you put an Intel quad-core against an AMD eight-core.

There are tons of benchmarks around to prove all of this. But it's not to say that AMD processors are terrible, they are very good, but Intel manages to still win.

This pretty much counters the "AMD being budget" partially:
The i7 is much greater than the AMD with a relatively same price.
The i7 having 6 cores, AMD 8. AMD having 2.1 GHz and the i7 having 3.20 GHz.

If you spend a certain amount of money, AMD is the right way to go.

If you have the money to buy a high end CPU, Intel is the way to go.

I have the Phenom II x4 965, and I guarantee Intel could not provide better quality and performance for $100 than that little thing.

I have three questions (again)
1) Is this good Memory?

2) Is this good Storage?

3) Is this a good PSU?

And most importantly, will it blend?

[Momentum]

yes to all

but what are you doing with 16GB ram

Which is will last longer, if there's any real difference.

yes to all

but what are you doing with 16GB ram

Thanks and because I usually have stuff in the background running a lot, like Chrome, Steam, and sometimes I host some servers and my laptop I have currently can barely take that right now.

1) Yes
2) Iffy
3) Yes

Thanks, and can you or someone else find me better Storage? 2TB please and around $150
