I'm 13 i am extremely tech savvy.

should i ask for an iPhone 5 (assuming it will come out in July, in which case I will ask for an iPhone gift card)

OR

should I ask for parts to build myself a Gaming PC? ( i am experienced, and have built several other less powerful PC's on my own)


I don't have a phone now because my parents only allowed me to get a phone once I turned 13 and my B-day was in mid-october but I haven't got a phone because i don't want to get committed to a new 2-yr contract until i get a phone i actually want.

I play very demanding games and am a HUGE fan of the Crysis series. i want this computer to be prepared for Crysis 2. I currently play these games on my Macbook Pro (its a 2010 Core i7 model) but it STILL cannot run those games as well as I want them to.


heres the specs of my ideal computer:

Antec 1200 full tower case
Asus X58 compatible motherboard (i'm not too picky)
Intel Core i7-920 (I will definitely overclock)
6GB DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
2x ATI 6850 CrossfireX (i will overclock these too)
Xi-Fi sound card (i have a very nice speaker system in my room)
1TB HDD
80GB SSD
Razer Black Widow Ultimate Gaming Keyboard
Razer Mamba Gaming mouse
900W Power supply


Its one or the other.

which should i chose??? i've been trying to decide for 2 months now.

thanks
yes.... the iPhone is quite obviously "like a computer" but i will definitely not be able to play Crysis at full settings on an iPhone.

some people need to learn more about computers...... geez!......
