Has anyone build a computer using an Intel Next Unit of Computing Kit ? Is it worth it or is it a waste of money?

Depends if you really need something that small otherwise you could build a complete mini-itx system for what they are asking for them kits.

$150 for a 7850 is after you recuperate from hustling i.e. selling the game codes.

I'm upgrading to a 7870 tomorrow. Still was a bit suprised how well a gtx 550 ti held up. Bioshock Infinite maxed out at 1080P was netting me 30-40 fps on that thing.

Whichever is the cheapest 2GB version that comes with an AMD reloaded bundle. Some have better warranties and coolers so its up to you if you want to get that deep into the selection.

I see so many AMD 7850 2GB on newegg and amazon

which is the most popping? :(
get a 2gb model on eBay for about $150 without the games from an established seller.

Or pay a little over to get the games (worth it IMO) unlike the shytty nvidia offerings
