Hi guys, need a good computer for designing games and apps, I've followed the template too.
Approximate Purchase Date:
September 2014
Budget Range:
£1,500 - £2,000 (as low as possible as I will need to buy my software too)
System Usage from Most to Least Important:
Producing/making games and apps
Testing the games and apps
And possibly playing some games
Are you buying a monitor:
Maybe a secondary one as I'll have a 32" Tv buy then which will be the main one.
Parts to Upgrade:
None, starting from nothing.
Do you need to buy OS:
Yes, Windows 7 Preferred
And a possible dual-boot with Windows 8 to test compatibility.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts:
eBay
Amazon
Ebuyer
Any that will accept PayPal for payment.
Location:
UK
Parts Preferences:
Graphic Card - Nvidia (preferred but possibly ATI if persuaded)
RAM - Not fussed as long as it's fast and a decent amount.
Processor - Intel (AMD possible but with persuasion)
MoBo - Reliable.
Overclocking:
Not looking too yet, but maybe in the future as I want my processor to last.
SLI or Crossfire:
Unsure if it's beneficial as too may different opinions and never done it before to experience it.
Your Monitor Resolution:
Unknown as I'm not getting my Tv till Christmas.
Additional Comments:
Would like a Quad core i7 but other suggestions are considered.
SSD would be ideal.
Thoughts on a Raid for storage?
Internal or external HDD for backups?
Blu ray optical drive.
Relatively nice case please
Fan or water cooled?
USB 3.0 ports.
Need nice mouse and Keyboard.
Thinking of getting a Cyborg RAT mouse, but don't know what Keyboard.
Thanks for your help
