I am trying to get together some specs for a decent gaming computer for under $1000 that can run games such as Rift, SW:TOR, Skyrim, etc, at a decent level. I don't know much about putting together computers so i figured going through iBUYPOWER.com would be a good idea. This is what I came up with. Please let me know what you think, or if you have found something else that could give me more bang for my buck that would be much appreciated as well. Please feel free to email me with any advice at greg.c.sinnott@gmail.com
