Build me a computer.

You're crazy! PCs are way better than macs, not even taking into account the cost! for that amount of money, you could get a PC that is much more reliable, powerful, and will give you better options for the future. I don't know what you are going from there, but all gaming computers are PCs because of the cheaper cost for the same parts, better upgrade-ability (or should I say any upgrade-ability), more options to begin with. If you are going for being able to play any game with decent FPS on anything higher than bare minimum settings, then you need something much more powerful than any mac cheaper than $2500, a home-built $1000-$1500 PC sounds like the right choice to me. However, I do agree that the mouse that asdf recommended is awesome.

No PC is more reliable. We have a PC, and it is the most unreliable piece of shit you can buy. There is always issues with the hardware and software, Microsoft can't make a decent os, thats why they replace their old one every year. And I dont mean they add a few things to better the experience. They scratch the old one and try to make something better, which ends up being just as buggy as their old system. Plus, on macs you can run Windows if you really want to now. Have been able to for years (since they started using intel based chips). My four year old iMac can run most new games (sc2, d3, ext) on medium with decent FPS.

Dont get me wrong, gaming on a PC obviously is better for the game selection, but I'd rather use something that makes since and is easy to use and navigate.

The other issue with getting a completely new PC, excpecialy when you have a say $1000 budget, is you dont get to spend what you really are going to want to spend on parts. You have to get a new monitor, mouse, keyboard, the actual os, external speakers, everything. That right there can cut you one fourth or one third short of your actual budget, that is of course if you want to buy decent stuff.

Plus, can you get a 12 core unit with PC? I think not.

AMD makes 16-cores. And: http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news...zer-server
