Hey everyone, I wanted to build a new computer, Intel based, that could play games. First I would install Mac OS X Snow Leopard, because I use Mac for everything except gaming, then install Windows 7 Home 64-bit through boot camp, which is how I would play games. Here are the specs, I would prefer not to go any higher than I am at right now, lower for equal or better performance is fine too :)
