    Why is cheating section? Why not in technology section?
    What do you mean by worth it? A good comp is a good comp if you use it enough!

    Edit: yikes! It's almost ALWAYS cheaper or at least better to pick/buy own parts individually than use a site like this!

    Yeah if you give your max price limit and post in the tech section everyone can help you a lot more! Also say where you live so they can reccomend a good site to buy at.

    Yeah lots of those out there.
    IMO always best to spend/save as much as you can when building new so it will be super future proof.

    Cyberpower has some very nice comps but is pretty expensive. If you think you could make your own comp, I'd go with doing that.

    Yep the best computers are custom built. If you want a botting computer get a good processor and good ram

    - Video card is extremely too weak. Switch it to atleast 560 or 560 Ti. Thats the biggest mistake with this setup!
    - 430W power supply will most likely cause system instabilities or the computer wont even start up once it arrives. Switch it to 650W one(550W would be perfect but there is just 500 and 650W one, so take the bigger.)
    - Consider Cooler Master HAF 912 case, known as a superb case for many.
    - Unless you plan to overclock or get the system overclocked by them, switch the 3570K processor to regular 3570 and save 20$. They both are too expencive processors for the build but didn't see a suitable replacement from the list. :)
    - These cheap all-in-one "watercoolers" are generally crap and are outpercormed by similar value air coolers. If you are not overclocking, the stock Intel cooler that comes with the processor will be enought btw so no need to spend any more money there.

    Anyway.. You probably want to fit more case fans to the case to improve cooling and keep it all cool during the summer months. Generally, when fitting a regular gaming computer, you can expect to spend around 30-40% of the $ on graphics card, 30-40% on the CPU and then the rest on motherboard, case, memories and everything else. If you want, I can look around CyberPower website and find a bit better build for you with the same $.

    Yes please, I would love a good build. I want it strong enough for 3 3d monitors if possible. Its main purpose is gaming but I will bot on it so 16GB ram is needed. Thanks again.

    How many bots you plan to run that you need 16 GB of ram? 8 GB of ram would save you roughtly about $85.

    Here is what I came up with: http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/saved/1EC1KP

    If you want to switch to 8GB of Ram, you can get a bit better CPU and mobo but thats about it. Overally a strong setup with 16 GB Ram, 560 Ti graphic card and i3-2120 processor. You can change the case to whatever is availble with similar price.

    Picked the processor and motherboard as cheap as possible to not break the budget but they both work very well with this setup. I have used this processor on many of my gaming builds I've sold and people have liked it. If you were to live in EU, I could probably custom build you something that would be a bit cheaper. Using the 560 Ti on my home computer and it is awesome. :)

    PS! Just noticed the motherboard has only two RAM slots. So you either have to downgrade to 4GBx2 memory and save $83 or upgrade to 8GBx2 memory and spend $59.

    You should learn to build your own computer, it can be hard work, but it will be better and cost less. You'll have to do lots and lots of research though.

    Does the $750 include a monitor?
    I can build you a great computer on sites like Newegg or such depending on where you live that run a lot faster for that amount of money.

    16GB of ram is complete overkill, and If you are spending $750 it would be an unwise investment to go with anything under an i5 processor.
