Approximate Purchase Date: Within a week or two.
Budget Range: 800-1000
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, movies, amateur video editing.
Are you buying a monitor: no
Parts to Upgrade: Need whole computer.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: none
Location: Sydney Australia
Parts Preferences: Reliability is high in my list.
Overclocking: If this helps gaming performance and looks
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe at a later date as an upgrade.
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920 x 1200
Additional Comments: Ok so im completely new at this and am willing to try to learn more about comparisons and what to look our for. Basically I want a PC that will run games like Dota 2, Battlefield, ARMA, Crysis, Skyrim ect VERY smoothly and on the highest settings.
I also want my PC to handle very light video editing, mainly youtube stuff but am aiming to get more advanced as the years go on. Happy to keep this at a low priority with an option to upgrade parts in the future (10% of the time is used for editing ect)
My biggest problem is I have no idea where to start, a base build that I can do some research on would be awesome. The ability to see alternative options and compare my findings based on price and performance.
Ideally im looking for quality, reliability and price (in that order around the $1200 mark)
Any help is appreciated, also looking for options to pick up and have labour included/ excluded pending the benefits)
Thanks
