Ok fellas, I've been tired of gaming on a laptop, and am looking for something more than a 15 fps average.

This is my list from newegg

http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/Publi ... r=11350646

it contains 6gb ddr3 memory, quad core processor 3.0ghz, 500gb seagate harddrive, a a GTX 260 gfx card with 860 mb of memory (it requires two graphics card slots since its so massive), a 600 watt power supply, completeed with a GIANT motherboard, check 'em all out, I think I got them all to work together, but thought i'd get some extra help to see if everything is compatible.

OH and I think I might get the box from tigerdirect...the one i have on newegg is like 30 dollars more than i would spend on one from tiger. here are the two i am contemplating,

the cruiser is steel, comes with 2 fans, with 2 extra slots, idk read the specifications http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications ... =A107-1050

the other is teh guardian, comes with 3 fans but is ten dollars more, but doesnt have much other specifcaitons.

plus i think the cruiser looks cooler, and its steel so it might last longer.

tell me what you think, and any things i should change

oh, and im thinking also about changing my gfx card to an nvidia, i just am not familiar with nvidia so i dont know what would be a better one to get. It has to be ddr3 though, here is the list of nvidia's at newegg

http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductLi ... ame=NVIDIA

oh and keep in mind, i want this computer to run great, im not looking for the complete best awesome computer that ever lived, im looking for something that runs amazing, but doesnt have stuff that isnt needed in it

well, i want ddr3 memory, i want an nvidia gfx card, i want a decent sized harddrive, 500 as the max, but like 300 as the lowest.

I want it to be able to run a game without lagging! shoot! I need it around $1000, if lower, GREAT!

ummmm if you can get the stuff to fit in one of the two boxes i picked out, which will lower the cost, coooooool.

and about upgrading, i want it to last a good amount of years. 5? if not 1 or 2 more, if possible... -.-

btw what's your xfire?

the gtx 260 requires one slot ..i had it. good card tho. but in a year completley out of date. maybe u meant it requires 2 pcie powerplugs ... but that doesnt show how massive it is ...it shows only that this card eats looots of watts.
