MainGear all the way that just looks sharp. I like the coolant tubes being shaped and not just drooping in the build.

Hi all,
We're aware of the missing voting fields. Working to get that fixed now!

#1 cyberpower pc: By far the best bang for the buck from the entire selection.
I dream of of what I would put into my rig just like the next enthusiast,
but I do it realistically. And realistically I would get the best performance
I could while keeping the price point down, and Cyberpower has done that with
flying colors.

#2 Velocity Micro: The case may look strange being on wheels, but the simplicity
of this build is great. No huge flash on the outside and a sensible parts list
inside. A 780 Ti is more than enough power for gaming and that leaves room
in the future to add another when it comes time.

#3 NCIX: An enthusiast company keeps the build price within reason and still
keeps two top-dog GPUs powering the system. They also say they cut down on
flair to obtain that lower price but the I would be proud to sport such
a beautiful machine next to my desk anytime. And I love that they stuck with
windows 7. Makes them old school.

I guess you can see from my list that price IS important to me, but it is more than that. Each of these selections also leave room for expansion later on, whether it's adding another GPU in the future or letting the customer overclock his own CPU. Isn't that what it's all about? What we all have in common? Coming to this site for whatever reason, we share our enthusiasm in tweaking these machines ourselves. I don't want a perfect machine that I can't leave my mark on. Let me contribute to it's speed and power. Working under the hood of my rig is ten times more fun than playing games on it.

#1 Digital Storm
#2 Falcon NorthWest
#3 Origin PC

Those three builds are all amazing for different reasons, though the line between #3 and some of the ones that I left off the list is pretty thing.

 

[XANX]

I'd say I'm liking the Maingear, Origin PC, and Digital Storm builds the most, although they're all pretty beast!

 

[ishumbisho]

My favorites in order are...

1) Falcon Northwest for the form factor
2) Cyberpower PC for the components and good price
3) Digital Storm for the top-of-the line dream PC
