1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
This will be for pretty much everything. I will be playing games, recording television, serving media throughout the house, viewing movies, etc. I may also do some rendering and programming if I get back into that.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
Probably between $500 to $1000, but I'd prefer to stay under or around $800.
3) Where do you live?
The United States.
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. Please be very specific.
I'll need a motherboard, RAM, a processor, hard drives, and a graphics card(s)
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
I'm reusing my case, water cooling, and power supply. My power supply is a BFG ES-800.
6) Will you be overclocking?
Yes.
7) What size monitor do you have or plan to have?
Currently 24" 1920x1200. Possibly 30" 2560x1600 in the future.
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Most likely this summer.
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? etc.
RAID would be nice. I definitely want both Crossfire and SLi support. I don't necessarily need tri SLi, but the option would be nice. I may use my current graphics card as a physics processor (8800GTS 512).
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license?
Yes, but I may want to move to Windows 7 later.
