Hi everyone! I'm planning on getting a new PC. But since this is my first build, I'm going to need some help.
--
Build Notes:
I have all of the peripherals I need.
I need an OS, Windows 8 is preferred.
--
Preferences:
I'd like an SSD if possible.
I intend to buy from Newegg only.
--
Overall, I'd like a $725 gaming desktop with an OS and a SSD if possible. Thanks everyone!
