I think you should build a gaming PC yourself. I've heard of that company and tried customizing, but for some things they overcharge you, they might put crap brands in, etc. Also, some say they are a so-so company.
I built mine myself and I feel good knowing everything in there is quality and connected myself. Its not hard to put it together, anyone can do it.

Personally, my PC costed $1100 and has a OC'd i7 930, hyper 212 cooler, ripjaws ram 8GB 1600mhz, evga sc gtx460, 500gb wd black, cooler master haf 922 case, corsair tx-750 psu. With any customizable online you wouldn't get to see what brand of components your putting in.

Newegg has lots of specials and discounts if you decide to go that route.
Just my $0.02.

I don't have time to build a computer with working full time and school. Compared to having them build it and pricing on parts its only about a 100 dollar difference plus they will do professional wiring. and a 3 year warranty. The parts they are using I know are good quality. Im just seeing what you guys think on specs.

I am barely at my apartment more than 20 min. And if I'm going to build it I'm going all out and this is an easy solution. When you work full-time and go to school part time, The last thing i want to do is build a computer. On top of that It does not take an hour to build a comp. If I'm going to do it I'm gonna do it right with wrapped wires all tucked into the case, Lots of fans, Leds, Cathode Light... etc. Just like this. Except i don't have to build it.

And the reason for the 12gbs? So i dont have to upgrade 3-5 years down the line. Its called preparing for technology.

lol minimum needed NOW is 2-4gb you wont need 12 in 3-5, if your barely at your apartment for more then 20 minutes why spend $1,000-$2,000 on a computer you will barely use, and yes i recently built my second PC and it took a total of 45 mins from the time i started unpacking the parts to the time I started installing the Os, Thats including the time to neaten up the inside of the case. No offense, but it seems you clearly don't know a lot about this topic.

I know a lot about this topic. I am a certified computer tech. I know what the hell im doing and the pc i have right now has 6gb of mem. The whole point is having a sick gaming rig. And when i do get the time id like to be able to use it. I rather have someone build it for me and have it done neatly than trying to figure out when i can fit building it into my schedule. I know its hard to believe that people have the money to spend on things, but thats what you get for working full time.

And that ram req. is for low end games. If im going to game Im going to go all out full on high res textures on my new 24' lcd hdmi monitor Happy Plus the one i ordered has 2 470gtx's in sli
