Hello everybody, what a great community. I need to learn a lot about computer components so I’m here looking for your help in a new build. Note: Sorry if my English is bad sometimes…
Approximate Purchase Date: December
Budget Range: 1000$-1200$ (Without case, monitor)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Web design, Photoshop, illustrator, AutoCAD, 3D modeling, and gaming. Office and web browsing.
Are you buying a monitor: No
Do you need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Ok, here is the hard part. I need to buy most of the parts physically (I only know stores like Best Buy, I have been researching and found TigerDirect too) So if you know any stores around the US (Florida) where i can go and buy those parts i will be grateful. Comment: parts that are less than 99$ can be bought in Amazon.
Location: I live outside US but I will travel to Florida in December, that's when I’m planning to buy almost all the parts
Parts Preferences: by brand or type: Intel cpu, Asus or ASrock motherboard
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Yes
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080 HD (Maybe next year i will upgrade the monitor)
Additional Comments: Ok, this build is a huge challenge. Everything that exceeds the 99$ i will have to buy it physically in December, and anything that is less than 99$ i can buy it online in amazon.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: my pc died early this year, so I have been saving money this year for a new build. In my country everything is just too expensive, so my plan is buy everything (Except the case, monitor and accessories) when I travel to the US.
My major concern is the processor and motherboard, I need these two to last for years and be upgradable maybe, because these are obviusly the most expensive and hard to find in my country.
One of my "Ideas" for the build that I think I can find the parts physically when I travel:
CPU: Intel core i7-4770k / Intel Core i5-4670k
Mobo: Asus Sabertooth Z87
Ram: 16gb
Graphics Card: 1gb (NVIDIA probably... I don't really know)
HDD: 1TB/2TB Seagate barracuda
Power supply: No idea... A corsair probably but i don’t know with how much power.
Cooler: No idea
SSD: Crucial of 120/240gb (Not sure)
Well, that's it. So thank you very much in advance. Feel free to put your ideas for the build, recommendations, etc. (And, again, sorry if my english is bad sometimes)
