Building new gaming/office rig - would appreciate some tips for parts.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Gaming, Photoshop, web browsing, office work
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
~$800 for remaining parts, willing to go higher
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
Newport, RI
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc.
RAM, GPU, CPU, ATX mobo, & storage
pretty much settled on Samsung 840 256gb SSD
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Re-using existing case (ATX), which has brand new 500w PSU
6) Will you be overclocking?
No
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
2560x1600 - 30" Dell 3007WFP
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Now
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.
Nothing special
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If so, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
Not yet, Planning on Windows 7 Pro 64bit
Many thanks!
