Approximate Purchase Date: 1-3 months depending on my hours at work.
Budget Range: After all costs are factored in, $1,000.00, give or take $100.00
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, streaming games, watching videos.
Are you buying a monitor: No, but I will in the future, I am just focused on getting a computer first.
Parts to Upgrade: The whole damn computer. Nothing is salvageable from this thing.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes. Although I am not interested in Windows 8.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: No preference, just wanting things as cheap as they can get, so pcpartpicker would be awesome.
Location: Kansas City, Missouri, United States.
Parts Preferences: I have no parts preference because I've heard many different opinions on AMD/Intel and Radeon/NVIDIA
Overclocking: I have never overclocked so, maybe.
SLI or Crossfire: I have never done this either, although I know what it is, I believe it would cost too much to do SLI or Crossfire on this computer without sacrificing something that I would need more.
Your Monitor Resolution: 1280x1024 as of right now. I am looking to get a 1920x1080 or 1920x1200 (Whichever is better). I am looking for a good monitor but not one that will destroy me financially.
Additional Comments: I always have a headset on and it is in my basement so it isn't near anyone that is sleeping. This being said quietness isn't really a priority of mine. Maybe a window for the case? Also some LEDs on the fans but don't get me wrong, it isn't my priority.
I play League of Legends mostly so it isn't anything too graphically demanding. Although I am looking to play ESO (Elder Scrolls Online) when it comes out and other MMO's to come. I do not play the high graphic demanding shooters that everyone plays currently so its nothing insane. I want to be able to stream at like 720p-1080p. I guess it isn't anything that I'm prioritizing. Obviously I'm more interested in playing the games and being prepared for at least like 3 years of solid highest graphics gaming. I can build up money to upgrade it or get a new one later.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Gaming is so annoying because I have to run games at the lowest graphics settings while still getting 40 fps regularly.
Thank you guys for your help
