to see whats in supply
Well, I'm going there with my parents and checking it out.
Ionno why they don't let me just order them from newegg though. Would make life sooo much easier.

It's like, not new for her, (my mom), it's just that she doesn't want something without warranty/doesn't trust sites/doesn't trust people on the internet.

yeah, what the cat meant was
the idea of internet integrated in lifestyles
not only in terms of Facebook but also buying and purchasing from online stores, having online access to bank account, conducting business conferences, basic level research etc.

Educate her on building a computer vs pre-built (you must teach her very clearly or she/they wont understand) then she can trust you with ordering online.

go over the newegg policies with her on returns and the warranties for each product (a hassle but it helps you as well as your mom)
like you can return stuff that broke down on its own (like a RAM stick that wont work)
but cannot return hardware that broke because of you (like stepping on something)

i5-2500 (2500k if you want to overclock)
sandy bridge is more cost effective than the i7s
and the i7s that are stronger than i5-2500 aren't worth the money for video games

Neither can I.
Mom's really testing my patience man :U
We bought a stupid Jacuzzi for $800 instead of my computer. This is why I wanna buy it as soon as possible, or they will use all of our insurance money. Like, UGHHH.
