Hi to all..
For some time now I have been trying to figure out what the best pieces for my new computer where going to be... I had selected an E6600 procesor, 8800GTX, etc. as I am a hardcore Gamer.
I do not live in the U.S.A but will be going there between the 6th of July to the 2nd of August to visit my brother who does live there and was planning on ordering the parts just before leaving so that they would be there waiting for me when I arrived.
To wait or not to wait, that is the quesion. I have been told that on the 22nd of July Intel processors will have a dramatic price reduction, enabling me to buy the same computer for the same price with only one slight difference... instead of having an E6600 i would have an Q6600.
If I were to wait until the 22nd of July, I would order the pieces on that day and have them arrive 3 days later, on the 25th of July, giving me only 8 days to build, test and make sure all the pieces are working. I have never built a computer before in my life so I will take my time to make sure im doing everything right. If a piece arrives faulty, I will have to send it back and the replacement might not arrive on time before I leave. Also, will there be a big demand on processors that day? Will I be able to order one for myself?
Those are my worries... What do you lot think, should I order now and go with the E6600? or should I wait for the price redctions?
Am I getting worked up about nothing?... I am just worried that everything might just not work and that by that time it will be to late
Thanks for reading and answwering my Question...
