Hey All Wanted some feedback on my proposed upcoming build.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Mostly Gaming, Some Design / CAD Work
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
Ideally no more than $2000.00 CDN
3) Where do you live?
Ottawa, ON
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
CPU, RAM, CASE, FANS, PSU??, HDD's, OS, GPU & COOLING
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
PSU? Not sure if it will be adequate. GPU?? Not sure if adding a second would be worth while, or just picking up a 5870?
6) Will you be overclocking?
Not primarily, but I like having the option.
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
Currently Have a Dell 3007-WFP (Rez @ 2560x1600
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
In the coming few months (2-4)
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? etc.
Crossfire Support for Sure
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? 32bit or 64bit?
Will Be purchasing WIN7 Home 64bit
