So I am building a PC for gaming as well as high power for many other programs.

1.) If the optimal graphics option is gray, is that better than max or worse?

2.) How long is the support for the full computer itself? (parts, wrong wiring and such)

3.) Should I go with an AMD Phenom II x4 Quad-core 970, 975, or AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition Six-Core CPU? (Remember I want this computer for Max gaming settings for BF3 as well as many new games like Skyrim and for it to last for awhile with video editing and rendering)

4.) Is the advanced wiring option worth it?


Sorry for the very long post but it is very important!

1 - I don't know?

2 - Probably not too long.

3 - None, go with an i5-2500k, it will destroy any AMD cpu on the market as of today.

4 - They probably do a sloppy job, so yes.

Also, edit the topic..you're not building it, they're.

I would recommend actually building it yourself, you'll save a ton of money and have fun..it's your choice though.
