1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Gaming/Media
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
Total budget is $700 but this includes purchasing a screen and OS
3) Where do you live?
Upstate NY
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. Please be very specific
Pretty much everything
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Case is possible, otherwise everything will be from scratch
6) Will you be overclocking?
Not planned, possible if it fits the budget
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
19 inch will probably do to keep costs down
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
asap
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? etc.
no raid, firewire isn't necessary, don't think crossfire or sli will fit the budget
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license?
no
This build is going to basically be for modern gaming purposes and hope it will last a little while into the future. (don't expect 10 years or anything, but a few would be nice)
I've mostly only dealt with Newegg in the past.. What are the best places to get hardware from these days? Not everything needs to be purchased from the same place so is there anywhere specific that certain parts that I should look?
Thanks for your help in advance.
