Hello there. I'm from Spain and I'm looking for a new gaming computer. My budget is around €800-€1000... Which is $1100-$1350, in dollars. I asked right here, in this forum before, but now the Optical Drive and the PSU aren't available lol... So meh, I guess it isn't bad to ask again.
Approximate Purchase Date: This month or March
Budget Range: €800-€1000 (which is $1100-$1350)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, surfing the internet, watching videos, and any other normal task.
Are you buying a monitor: Yes (I've always been a laptop user, so... I must buy one as I don't have one!)
Parts to Upgrade: None; it's a new build. I need it all, EXCEPT a mouse lol.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes (I thought about Windows 7 or 8)
Please note that if you're using an OEM license of Windows, you will need a new one when buying a new motherboard.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: OK, here's the worst thing... Newegg and those shops only ship around the US. And I'm from Spain! So, I guess that AMAZON.es (Spain) and some Spanish sites like PCComponentes.com.... The bad thing is that they are in Spanish so you won't understand >.>
Location: Meh, in a very wet place... Galicia, Spain. It is above Portugal.
Parts Preferences: I wanted an Intel CPU, and all the components from trusted brands. I thought about this GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 GHz Edition. It looks cool, and I heard it's more than enough for actual gaming. The CPU from the former build is an i5-4430 (I know it's non-overclockable, but I won't overclock the CPU).
Overclocking: No.
SLI or Crossfire: No. But maybe (and only maybe) in the future. But the very very future... Not soon.
Your Monitor Resolution: I'd want 1080p. That's fine.
Additional Comments: Only if possible, I'd like the case to be nice... I know it doesn't provide nothing to the computer, but that's cool lol. By nice, I mean not to be ugly...
Ow, and I'm also asking for an advice about the next: paying someone some money to build me the computer, or build it myself? I know it's funnier building it myself, but it'd have more risk as well! And I don't know a lot of hardware things...
I'd also like to ask if I need a CPU Cooler if I won't be overclocking anything.
Thank you all from advance.
