Aw man! You're missing out on some damn good games to wait til 2014/15. But I'll leave the lambasting to somebody else, I don't swing that way.

I really hope PC is true, I'd love to see what Sonic Retro would do with the assets. Of course, it'll probably be stripped down like SASASR. So no achievement things or online leaderboards.

Gottta build a new powerful PC sometime in the future.

Get to see the Hedgehog Engine at it's full potential not being held back by hardware.

Got Two versions of my future PC planned out. AMD build is cheaper... but the Intel build isn't THAT much more... guess it will depend how I feel at the time money-wise. Plus the intel build allows for massive easy over-clocking on air cooling. Note, that I could be doing this for even cheaper, but I want to build a completely new PC. Need a new DVD drive and I'm sick of looking at my current PC case. Plus I want to keep my old PC around in case something goes wrong with my new one.

I've also included the specific parts, yes that's right, steal all my hard work! xP J/k

Intel Build $907
GTX 560 1GB GDDR5 RAM
Intel Core i5 2500k Sandy Bridge 3.3Ghz Quad-core 95 watt
8GB Ram
640GB HDD
550 Watt Powersupply
Specifics: http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg26 ... _build.png

AMD Build $772
GTX 560 1GB GDDR5 RAM
AMD Phenom II X4 945 Deneb 3.0Ghz 95 watt
8GB Ram
640GB HDD
550 Watt Powersupply
Specifics: http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg26 ... _build.png

*prices don't include tax, shipping, extra misc stuff such as fans

AMD build. Save the extra 200 dollars for a good monitor! You can get one 24 inch one for 180 sometimes.

Hmm yeah a new monitor would be nice.

The thing to keep in mind is the processor in the intel build is much faster then the one in the AMD build on default clock... can only imagine it in overclocking.

but hank did tell me that the AMD build would be fine for what I want... sooo blah =P as nice as a fast processor sounds I think a new monitor should take priority.

Don't go overkill, if you won't use that much power, why bother? Don't say "What about in 5 years" because we all know that in 5 years we are just going to build new machines.

Go AMD dude, way more bang for your buck. Running a Athlon X4 645 in this Desktop, got an i5 in my laptop. Also, what George said. You will have a new comp in five years, or at least have replaced major components. What I did is grabbed a AMD mobo with support for SLi, then once prices come down on my graphics card just gonna toss another one in there and run it in SLi.

@Shadi: Don't bother building a PC right now, unless you really need to. AMD is about to release new processors mid June, and until the time Generations is released, there will most likely be new released and price drops.

Okay so i did some tweaking/streamlining to my builds after doing some more research, the price difference is even bigger now! I upgraded the GPU to a GTX 560 Ti and so I had to get a higher wattage PSU to make up for the power difference. I also went with a cheaper motherboard for my AMD build since I wont be doing any overclocking or anything and don't need a super expensive motherboard.

I'll still be waiting of course. My hope is that when AMD's new stuff comes out that their prices of their current stuff go down =P I honestly don't need the latest and greatest, what i got in this AMD build will last me a long time.

Intel Build $947
GTX 560 Ti 1GB GDDR5 RAM
Intel Core i5 2500k Sandy Bridge 3.3Ghz Quad-core 95 watt
8GB Ram
640GB HDD
620 Watt Powersupply

AMD Build $782
GTX 560 Ti 1GB GDDR5 RAM
AMD Phenom II X4 945 Deneb 3.0Ghz 95 watt
8GB Ram
640GB HDD
620 Watt Powersupply
