HP unveils versatile gaming line for adult gamers

Gotcha. I've never seen HP or HPE do this. But never used those little boxes either.
-
I have always been one to build my own rig. Although, these are competitively priced from what I can see.

Hard to build your own laptop. For a desktop, I would definitely build.

@scottalanmiller Yeah, that is for sure. I have also never been a fan of laptop gaming and skipped right over their laptop section and went for the desktops.

It's not just little boxes, I had a call for someone and needed to update a DL350 Gen 8, same issue.

I always check out http://www.pcper.com/hwlb for the latest on the gaming parts for my PC upgrades. My current system is an ASUS GENE motherboard with an i7-4790, 16gb of RAM and an nVidia 970. It's not the greatest, but I can still play everything just fine. Using the pcper site, it's easy to pick and choose where to upgrade.
The monitor from HP looks nice! I wonder how it will compare to the Dell monitor (http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&sku=210-ADTR)?

Nice site, I love the decisive recommendations, something I always felt was missing from Tom's Hardware.

A G8 without service? Good grief.

I quit building my own rigs after I found a couple sites like Cyber Power PC. The prices are about what I can put the same components together for, they ARE standard components, and I have a 1 stop place for warranty work for a year or two. Most of those systems have lasted a long, long time because they do use industry standard motherboards/cases/power supplies/etc. So upgrading down the road is super easy.

Industry standard? What's that when it comes to components? If you want just some random collection of components, why not buy a Dell or HP? When you're building a white box, it's normally for power components, for gaming or other high intensity stuff. I'd want to pick out my components, or at least take higher end recommendations like pcper.com mention.

Have you ever replaced a Dell or HP power supply or motherboard? Good luck.

Yep but only with OEM parts.
I guess by the time they typically fail for me, in a home use situation I suggest an upgrade anyway.But that wont work for most people here because fixing computers is what we do.

Yeah, I've replaced a lot of HP power supplies was always easy with OEM parts

OEM sure, but they're generally more expensive than the standard ATX models. If they're still under warranty it's easy, send me the new part!
