Hi I've been lurking this sub-forum for a bit looking at builds people are doing and also went on pc parts picker for a bit but I really don't know what parts to get. I was wondering if anyone would give a build suggestion for a $1200-1800 price range.
Approximate Purchase Date: Boxing day - prices would be lower I'm guessing.
Budget Range: $1200-1800
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming.
Are you buying a monitor: No - I have 2 monitors already, both of their max resolutions are 1680x1050
Do you need to buy OS: No - I have Windows 7 64-bit already
Location: Victoria, BC, Canada.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: None
Parts Preferences: None
Overclocking: Maybe, I'd prefer not to though.
SLI or Crossfire: No, I've read of people having many problems with crossfire / SLI playing the games I play a lot of (DotA 2 and LoL)
Your Monitor Resolution: 1680x1050 for each of my 2 monitors
Additional Comments: The games I typically play aren't too demanding (DotA 2 / LoL / Skyrim) but I do like to be able to play most games well as I buy new games that appeal to me. My current PC has a terrible time playing games that are graphics / cpu intensive and typically have low fps or freezing lag which is anti-fun.
Sorry for not having a build thought out on my own, I don't value my computer building skills very highly. Every time I have selected parts by myself something has gone horribly wrong so I don't want my poorly selected parts affecting build someone might suggest.
