1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Gaming, Occaisional encoding / rendering, Occaisional Virtualization.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$600 CDN Including taxes and shipping, before rebates.
3) Where do you live?
London, Ontario Canada
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. Please be very specific.
Motherboard, CPU, RAM, case, GPU, HDD, PSU, capture card (if not now, later). 2.1 speakers.
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
*PS/2 Keyboard, USB mouse, combo drive.
6) Will you be overclocking?
Considering it.
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
currently have a 1024*768 LCD, but am planning on getting a higher resolution monitor (19, 20 inch) after this build
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Tommorow, or more likely next week
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? etc.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license?
yes.
Windows xp / vista / 7RC, linux
32 or 64 bit
Post-build I'll have probably 200 max for a monitor, something above 1280*800, size isn't that much of a concern.
The only local supplier i know of is at http://megacomputer.ca , they have an online catalogue and I've heard that they can order parts, and may potentially price match. I'm willing to order online but would prefer to just go and buy parts directly.
Any advice appreciated.
