1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
- very little gaming. at most probably starcraft 2 when its out but want a pc/gfx card that can handle the latest games no problem. occasional media editing with photoshop. web browsing. light school work.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
- $1500-2000. including taxes and shipping
3) Where do you live?
washington dc
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. Please be very specific.
everything minus monitor, speaker, mouse/keyboard.
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
all new parts
6) Will you be overclocking?
no sir
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
just bought 2 Dell UltraSharp 2209WA.
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Within the next month. but asap
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? etc.
not sure. tell me if i need it and ill buy it.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license?
yes sir.
I basically want to build a pc with the latest highly rated parts money can buy. i dont plan to upgrade my PC for awhile so i want it to last a few years before replacing parts. i already bought two dell 22" monitors which is not included in the $2,000 budget.
as mentioned, ill be media editing often and just using the computer for normal everyday purposes. but if i have the sudden urge to install a new game, i want my pc to handle it flawlessly.
want to be able to multitask. ie; watching videos while playing a game or media editing. etc
i plan to stick with windows xp unless you recommend vista for my purposes. plan to upgade to windows 7 down the line as well.
i know some guys recommend buying so and so part because its got a discount but im not afraid to pay full price for stuff.
thanks
