I am building a new system for a friend of mine.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Gaming will be the primary use. Word processing and web browsing.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$1300.00. Tax and shipping is included in this price.
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
USA. Rural North Carolina.
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
CPU
RAM (preferably 16 gigs)
PSU
GPU
SSD
HD
MOBO
Case
WIFI adapter (Not sure if this is a must but I would like a suggestion but do not factor this into the budget.)
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Mouse
Keyboard
Monitor
Optical Drive
Speakers
6) Will you be overclocking?
No.
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
Current monitor is a 42" 1920x1080. He may upgrade in the future to a 1920x1200 or a 1440 monitor.
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
ASAP. I would like to order the parts this weekend and build it next week.
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.
SLI/Crossfire
USB 3.0
Onboard Audio
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If so, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
No OS.
He would like a 64 Bit OS. I think he would be happier with Windows 7 since that is what he is familiar with. He is not against Win 8, if it gives a benefit with gaming. I am also more familiar with Win7 and I will be the one who helps him if he has a problem.
