Default Final Decision
I've continually plugged and prayed trying to come up with a decent machine to multibox on. At this point, I've relented on my wishlist. At this point I've decided all I want is a pc that I can play 2 accounts on without hardware based lag issues. These 2 computers are the final products of my being reasonable. Both are well within my budget(at the fair price of $679.99 +shipping) as of this moment. Requesting thoughts on which you would pick if you had to.


Choice A: CyberpowerPC Gamer Ultra 2023 Phenom II X2 550(3.1GHz)
Newegg.com - CyberpowerPC Gamer Ultra 2023 Phenom II X2 550(3.1GHz) 4GB DDR3 500GB NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit - Desktop PCs

Choice B: iBUYPOWER Gamer Battle Gear D8 Phenom II X2 550(3.1GHz)

I had a HP Pavilion DV7 Laptop but it died. Currently using an old ass desktop. When I tried to run wow on it, I get 5-8fps in empty locations.. tried dalaran once and wow froze.

anyways at this point its a decision between one of these 2 PCs and I'd rather get another's opinion as they seem so similiar to me.

It wont matter, they both have identical hardware... they are both put together by the same company.
