Too bad Mr. Jugo is so enamored with his A+ certification, and so ready to call people names, that he couldn't read the title of the book. It is obviously a book for gamers, directed toward those who have not paid money to be trained in the tips laid out in this book.This is a very clearly-written book that clearly explains the process of assembling a PC that will serve gamers well. Mr. Case does not talk down to his readers; it's as if he's there right next to you, handing you the screwdriver as you work.
Great book for the PC gamer

I think Mr.Jugo is bit off the mark with his review and here's why. I'm your average computer game enthusiast and have been playing games since the invention of the Atari 2600 game system. I have been playing games that are on the cutting edge of current PC gaming but on a system that is a little behind the curve. When I built my first system using Loyd's first book, "Building the Ultimate Game PC " I had one heck of a system. Now with Loyd's second book, I can assure you that I not only didn't have to build a new system, I was able to do several "tweaks" and squeeze out an extra 200 pts, with respect to my benchmarks. So in a nutshell, this book helped me to understand the new 3d graphics cards, and how they do the magic that they do, and keep my present machine running at optimum levels. Thanks Loyd.
