    I think it would be best to upgrade after said games come out. There are many disadvantages to upgrading before a game is released and properly benchmarked and reviewed on various computer configurations. My advice: take your most highly anticipated (or most graphically intensive) game and focus on that release date for a date to start researching a computer purchase.

    Don't buy a computer that won't tell you what parts they use.  If you can't build your own, then try finding a site that will let you pick parts and then build what you pick.

    Centrecom has actually stores around my area, i would be buying in person/ i was always going to ask about specifics on the vague descriptions :). And the reason im looking for a comp now is cause my existing one has finally decided it wont allow me to play anything, by randomly dying of old age. such a shame. such a waste.
