1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc Gaming 2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included? $400-500 I have amazon prime and some amazon gift cards, so I will favor amazon for minor price differences but if I could save > $20 by going newegg...

Currently I have a single galaxy 660 ti 3gb and I am currently thinking about adding a second one. Maybe making the jump to 4k resolution in the future when the 4k monitor prices come down a bit (or if someone can recommend one that is reasonably priced) The question is, is this really a good...

All parts are on order ( I neglected to post when I actually placed the order ) but they should be here either today or tomorrow. Thank you for all the help gentlemen. One more question for the future, is it a bad of an idea is it to mix RAM sizes / speeds I'm not going to do this now, but...

updated list, for expediency sake for anyone who is looking at this now $102 Crucial 128 GB m4 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive $26 Cooler Master Hyper 212 $54 8GB G.Skill DDR3 PC3-12800 1600MHz $199 Intel Core i5-3470 Quad-Core Processor 3.2 GHz $114 MSI Computer Corp. DDR3 1600 Intel LGA 1155...

Thanks for the advice, it gets hot here 90+ degrees quite often, but my house will be air conditioned during operation of the PC, so room temp will likely be 74-76 I think I can safely downgrade the fan to a http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835233103 for half the price...

When gaming I run with only one of the two monitors, I guess I should amend the post to only list one, the only exception I know of is supreme commander which isn't that demanding The most demanding games I will be playing, crysis 2, borderlands 2, skyrim, battlefield 3 and then assorted older...
