Starting out

Hey, I want to do computer game development as a future career and I was wondering if any of you know what specs would I need in a computer to be able to develop the games as well as play some of the demanding games and if you can recommend a build I would appreciate it.

This forum is probably a better place to ask that question..

Look at some of the gaming builds, that will do for playing games. In regard to development your just going to need to start out programming and a powerful machine is not exactly necessary when starting out

If your just thinking about getting into level design and stuff you can take a look at the Unread Development kit for something to play around with.. Its free and will run on a relatively average machine.
