Approximate Purchase Date: Sometime in July hopefully, maybe August.
Budget Range: I'm looking to spend 600-800$.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming,Rendering HD Videos, Recording HD Videos from Recording software, Internet Usage
Are you buying a monitor: I have a 24" 1080p TV with HDMI
Parts to Upgrade: Pretty much everything, it is a new build from scratch. I do have a laptop with a 250GB Hard Drive so I don't need one immediatly.
Do you need to buy OS: I don't think so. I do have a Hard Drive in my Laptop that has Windows 7. I do not want Windows 8! Would it be possible for me to use my old hard drive on a New Pc? If I have to get one I would prefer Windows 7. I am not ready for Linux.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Please only use NewEgg.com!!
Location: City, State/Region, Country - Detroit Area, Michigan , MidWest, United States
Parts Preferences: by brand or type : I don't really care. As long as they are all compatible.
Overclocking: Maybe. Currently I wouldn't trust myself. I want to learn as I go so it is a possibility. It is definitely not a necessity especially if it will keep price down.
SLI or Crossfire: I don't know what that is!
Your Monitor Resolution: I am not sure :/. I do have a 24 inch 1080p TV with HDMI.
Additional Comments: I would like a PC that can play racing simulators at good FPS. I also want one to play PC games like Fall Out, Far Cry, BattleField etc. I also want to be able to run Dolphin GC emulator. http://www.dolphin-emulator.com/system-requirements.html
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My current Laptop obviously cannot play Games. It does render HD Videos but it takes all night. It can record gameplay but it gets laggy and just plain difficult to deal with.
Thanks in Advanced!
