Same with Graphics card brands. Two graphics cards isn't worth the cost, stick with the better of the ones you looked at. The thing about computer lounge. Is I found it so much more expensive. And yeah, I know about Ascent won't put it together, but I thought it'd be good experience if I put one together myself. So then when I go to update it at a later date, I won't have to take it into a shop. |
