7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?

3x 2048x1152 or higher resolution monitors. Size I don't care about. Just the resolution and quality. It cannot ghost, I plan on getting back into competitive gaming really soon.

I plan on keeping this system for a long while.

Umm... I'm not sure if I missed anything but I'll keep adding/edditing and changing things as we go.

Once a conclusion has been made and purchased, I'll post a build threatd, with video and such.

Thank you all for your help ahead of time it is greatly apreciated. Kinda hard to stay up with everything while deployed.

This is way too early for a build list. Revisit this thread around mid-June or two weeks before you plan on ordering everything, whichever comes later.

Not quite. I can pick out a bunch of stuff for it right now.

And still discuss the pros and cons for what I'd like and am looking for.

You can pick out that stuff now but that doesn't mean that those parts will still be recommended or even worth buying in July. In the next 4 months, virtually every part we recommend today will either be outdated, outperformed, overpriced, or out of stock.

Yes we can discuss the pros and cons for what you'd like and are looking for but that would only apply to parts you're buying within a month from now.

So I concur with Tiraides: It's too early to start planning a build. Two months at most but that's still cutting it close.

Also are monitors part of that $3000 budget?

 

[tiraides]

I said it was too early because new products will arrive and lots of price changes and/or specials will occur between now and June-July when you order. The real "hard part" for this build will be picking out the monitor(s) you want since everyone has a different notion of what makes a "perfect" monitor when there really isn't one.

 

[flooberjobby]

Ya the monitors are part of the budget.

But I have about 500 or so dollor leeway on going over the budget so far. I'll have to see though offically when I get back.
