Good day all!
 
I have been searching for a company like this for about a year now.  I used to have time to build my own machines but now I am extremely busy at work and cannot.  After reading about DS, I have decided to become a part of the family but need some advice.  After doing some of my own research, I am interested in spending about $2,000-2,500 on a gaming system.  I am looking for a decent build with upgrade possibilities....mainly motherboard, cpu, and videocard.
 
Anyone who might be able to steer me in the right direction, the help would REALLY be appreciated!
 
Oh, and I am guessing going with Vista for the DX-10?
 
Thanks again guys,
 
Johnny

depending on your skills, XP Pro w/ SP2 might be a better choice, and if you're only spending 2+ then just make sure you get a BIG case and the 680i motherboard.  If you are definitely going w/ the Vista for DX10 then 8800GT is probably your best budget card.  Good news is that you can customize your system for your own requirements.  Bought my system from DS...&LOVEIT!!!!

Yes the build I linked has a single video card with the option of adding another one later down the road.
