1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
I'll most likely be playing video games (MW2, L4D2, maybe some other games too). Maybe some mild video encoding (for when I make/convert youtube videos in HD). I like to use Fraps to record games, so I do some video encoding when I make a gameplay video.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$700-850. Yes shipping AND tax is included. I live in California so Newegg charges tax. My zip code is 93720 so you can calculate the price with tax.
3) Where do you live?
Like I said, Fresno, CA
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. Please be very specific.
Everything, even a wireless card (preferably Wireless-N), speakers, keyboard and mouse. For the monitor I'd like 1920x1080, but I'll accept whatever the budget allows.
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
I'd like the build to include a graphics card, but if it's impossible, I could always use my MSI R4670-MD1G Radeon HD 4670 1GB.
6) Will you be overclocking?
I might, it really depends. I'd prefer an aftermarket cooler
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
22"-24" or bigger (if possible) @ 1920x1080, but like I said, I'd go to a lower res if the budget won't allow 1920x1080
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Within 2 months. Maybe around Black Friday.
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? etc.
Crossfire/SLI is a good feature to have, but it's not necessary. I might do a RAID setup later, once I get the money. I was looking at this Samsung 1TB HD and heard it has great performance. I'm not stuck on any brand for an HD, but would prefer it to be at least 640GB.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license?
Yes, I have 2 out of 3 installs left on my Windows 7 64-bit System Builders pack
Thanks for your help in advance.
