Approximate Purchase Date: ASAP
Budget Range: $400 including shipping
Are you buying a monitor: No
Do you need to buy OS: No (Planning on adding Win 7 64x)
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: American/Canadian Retailers (Newegg, NCIX, etc)
Location: Petoskey, Michigan, United States
Parts Preferences: None really; I'd appreciate if I could get an AMD and Intel build though
Overclocking: Yes
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe, probably shouldn't worry about it with this budget?
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: My brother wants me to build him a computer. He gave me $400 to do so and I told him I could do it. If I get a good build I plan on buying the parts tonight. He wants to play modern games like BF4. I know that cuts it tight with this budget but he understands he won't be able to max it out. Also, please stray away from an only APU build. I'd like this system to have a discrete video card in it so I may overclock it if needed. This machine will be mostly a gaming machine and surfing the web. Also, I'm not a fan of having an aftermarket heat sink fan with this budget.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My brother has had enough of playing console and wants to upgrade to a decent PC.
