"With Doom III and other highly anticipated, graphically complex games like Half-Life 2 and The Sims 2 due to hit stores over the next year, PC hardware makers are licking their chops.

That's because to enjoy the full richness of these games, many consumers likely will have to shell out $80 to $500 for a new video card. Many may also have to install more RAM. And with some of the new games putting a lot of pressure on older CPUs, some gamers simply will decide it's time to go out and buy a whole new PC. "

Me. I'm planning on building my own near the end of the summer. Then I can finally throw out this peice of crap.

When is the PC gonna get decent fresh games? I get bored of playing Quake-clones and C&C-ripoffs...:annoyed:

...It looks like I might have to make that next revolutionary game!:rolleyes:
