I am having a very hard time making a choice on what i want... the pc i want is one that can play games from time to time, then some video producton as well . just a little bit, only for fun. and then, something that i will enjoy watching videos on.. youtube is just better without stutters on a 1080p video. i currently have a phenom x3 8400 ..@ stock speeds as i cant overclock on the acer motherboard. there is 6 GB of DDR2 RAM and 2 500 GB hard disk drives in RAID 0 ..running windows 7 ultimate. now, i cant decide desktop or laptop.. as i have a $1000 budget for either of them. im leaning towrds the desktop as i can always buy a better gpu when i need it or whatever component i want to upgrade.. or whateven.. when some laptops support upgrading the HDD to SSD and some RAM upgrades. but, not much else.. i would like to see one that can also have a GPU upgrade. that would be cool as hell.. but ya know .. i dont know of any.. i also would like to something that will last as long as possible. any ideas? the laptop is possible because of the mobilty .. being able to use it anywhere i want.. like to the city bus going to work/schooll is awesome.
