Well I ain't voting in this one as it has to be a balance of price v performance

Performance, followed closely by price. I want to be able to play all of the new games coming out with high settings, but I want to keep my pc cost below $1500.

SO that could be specs as well i guess.

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

System specs/price are the most important to me.


Brand: Unimportant, so long as it's better and more reliable than most of what's out there.
Looks: My Lian-Li PCV-1000B has been oft-criticized by trendy-bois, but it gets the job done and isn't a headache to work with (once you route the PSU). Plus, I'm not about to fall into the trap of Mac users, placing most of their argument on looks alone.
Accessories: Irrelevant, as I usually purchase these separate of a complete rig, unless building one for someone else who doesn't have the extra parts.

Well this is fast becoming a landslide victory for performance over prettiness.

I as I'd imagine does everyone else, buys the best gear I can afford, so specs then price, the only thing I thought about looks for was my KB mouse and case, and to a degree the monitor but as luck would have it the best performing monitor at the time was also damn sexy looking

I don't buy a new computer... I build my own.

So parts/price I guess?

Price, unfortunately I'm not in the position where I have unlimited amounts of money to spend to get the best parts.

Price to performance ratio. I guess system specs are what I usually look at first, but they are immediately followed by scrutinizing the price.
