Hello everybody,

 

I am planning to buy myself a MAC.

 

I have a budget of 3000USD.

 

I will use it mainly for facebook, twitter, instagram, youporn, deezer and of course gaming.

 

I want something that is beautiful first priority and then something great for gaming I want the best experience possible to play. So I will not take a laptop.

 

What do you guys think I should take?  I game Crysis3 and COD a lot. With my hypster friends, we want to play LAN on COD.

 

So? any ideas?

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

if you are serious, than by mac you mean desktop get pc if you want it for gaming. you can actually build a pretty sweet system for that kind of budget.

Nothing to see here, move along

Yes I know, but I really wanna have the aesthetic of it AND the gaming experience. And I ,now that gaming is great on a MAC, they're no virus, it works better than ANY pcs outhere, ANY! and it's the best platform to play and facebook. I will look like a pro with it.

Don't you mean, the lowest? I don't know that expression

If you're serious, then a Mac Pro. If not, then stop trolling pls.

iMac with 780m and the upgraded CPU or a mac pro are you're only choices.

 

you are better off getting a PC. you can build a nice, clean looking PC for $3000 if u get off your butt and put some time and effort into it.

 

 

have a nice day.

I am not confortable on video, and my english isn't that great either. But sometimes, there is more here than meets the eye.

I think this is by far one of the best trolls I have seen in a while, and somebody said that you can't watercool a computer

One day I will have my GTX 970. One day. PC specs are at my profile.

Not sure how to check what part works with what? Check out my compatibility guide!

You can't actually

 

What?? I can't what. I think some games works just fine on Mac, and you can definitely browse.
