Preferred Website(s) for Parts: pcpartpicker.com
Location: Kansas City, Missouri, United States
Parts Preferences: I don't care either way. Whatever will get me the most performance and the most out of my money while satisfying my major needs.
Overclocking: Maybe - Haven't done it before although I've been suggested a i5-3570k processor before for such reasons.
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe - Never done before.
Your Monitor Resolution: Current is 1280 x 1024 is the max, I am looking in to getting a 1920x 1080 or whatever the best resolution is for like a 22" monitor or whatever. I don't know much about monitors lol.
Additional Comments: The noise level of the PC isn't that big of a deal because I have a headset on most of the time so I don't hear it and I don't sleep near my computer. A windows and LED fans are always great but not a priority of mine. Performance beats cosmetics any day.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My current computer has an Intel Pentium D CPU with 3 GB of RAM. I am trying to play League of Legends and Minecraft and I can't even play those. I feel like that is enough said. xD
