yeah, i actually made a topic earlier about my PC, but now i don't care for it at all might as well just save up and make an even greater computer by the time diablo 3 comes out..
Yeah if u don't need computer upgrade at the moment, wait till the release and system requirements. When you buy it then your $900 PC will cost $500 or less. And that Quadcore 4gb should still run it then I suppose.
Yeah, I mean certain things are true atm of computer parts (Intel is currently a better processor in my experience with the new generation) but in 2 years' time or more, who knows. AMD is now reversing the trend and designing video cards that are not just bigger and hotter as Nvidia has been doing for the last 4 years. The power consumption on these cards is ridiculous.
I bought a power supply, 600W, with two connectors so I could SLI two 8800GTX's. Funny thing is, the damn card needs two power connectors to supply it adequately with power. I didn't even bother getting a second one just because of how retarded the engineering on these cards has become. AMD has finally put its foot forward and begun to design cards that aren't top of the line but are cheaper and are not overly huge (the 8800GTX is almost as long as my PC tower) and do not use as much power. I hope the trend continues so that video cards become more efficient as well as more powerful. Wait it out, you won't be sorry.

The results are pretty bad on Phenom atm compared to Intels chip.
