Looking to upgrade your PC into a gaming monster? We all want that extra power no matter what. Companies like Nvidia and ATI bring out a new graphics card every year in order to entice gamers and nerds alike into the stores. Let's face it, people just want to play those games at the highest resolution and eye candy up full.If it's time for your PC upgrade and you wish to build the ultimate box primarily focused on gaming, or you're on a budget and wish to cut back on cost, Ars Technica has a nice guide for building both the machine that isn't being held back by cash and a 'budget gaming box' guide for the less fortunate.
Compared to the Hot Rod, the Budget Gaming Box and Performance Gaming Box represent significant increases in performance. The gamer who wants top of the line performance will be very pleased at the gains these systems make over the Hot Rod, without breaking the bank like the God Box.
The Budget Gaming Box is a monster for gaming that is within reach for quite a few people. The additional cost over the Hot Rod buys components with a significant performance gain, without making the price hit the stratosphere. The Performance Gaming Box is even faster, but the price tag alone is a monster.
