Approximate Purchase Date: I'm expecting to purchase the parts in the few coming weeks to a month at latest.
Budget Range: $500-700 (USD) Before Shipping/Rebates, $800-900 (USD) After Shipping/Rebates
System Usage from Most to Least Important: (Gaming, School, Multimedia)
Are you buying a monitor: Yes
I will be needing some suggestions for an affordable build at my budget range.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Tigerdirect.com, Amazon.com, outletpc.com
Location: Guam, USA (U.S. Territory)
Parts Preferences: I would prefer building an AMD build, but if it's possible at my budget range for an Intel build, then I would take it too
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Yes / No / Maybe
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: If it's possible, I want a gaming-rig first that can max out League of Legends, Diablo III, and Guild Wars 2 with max settings at 1920x1080 resolution while having reasonable FPS. I could go a little over the budget if there's a big difference in the performance that would be noticeable.
This is my first time building a PC so I decided that I wouldn't go overboard with spending that much money for my first time.
Also, I've heard that an SSD is worth considering for a better all-around experience with the computer, and at my price range, would it be worth adding it even if it means going $100 over?
