I have been weighing up whether to get an Xbox 360 or PS3 for some time now and I have actually decided to get myself a PC instead. It seems a lot more expensive initially but in the long run actually looks cheaper. I was reading the "Build a PC" article in the new issue and I am interested in building a similar PC to the Optimal one shown in the mag. The cost is listed at $2313 which seems quite cheap, is this really a good gaming system? Would this be suitable for a first PC? Where can I get the parts and who can build it for me? Thanks a lot for any help.
