Approximate Purchase Date: As soon as I get a list of parts together, since work will start within a month.

Budget Range: $800-$1000 including shipping at at my doorstep thats like my max but honestly thats way too overkill for what it will be used it for, lower the better.

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Its not really for me, but its for a home office. Nothing intense will be happening. Just probably answering emails, excel, and the occasional netflix/youtube.

Are you buying a monitor: Yes and no, I don't NEED it but I wouldn't mind an upgrade from my shitty 720p one.

Parts to Upgrade: N/A

Do you need to buy OS: Yes.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I'm canadian so amazon.ca, or newegg.ca, make sure prices are in CAD

Location: Vancouver, B.C

Parts Preferences: I would prefer gigabyte or asus mobo. Anythings else is fine.

Overclocking: Maybe, I wouldn't want to or need to but if its unlocked and I can push it a couple ghz, why not.

SLI or Crossfire: No, that'd be way to overkill

Your Monitor Resolution: I would like a 1080p monitor, idk if you can get 4k monitors yet.

Additional Comments: Corsair 450D, and i would like multiple 1tb caviar blue HDD's to do raid 0 or i might make duplicate's so I don't lose data, but since fail rate of 2tb is less then all others 2tb WD's are fine. An 120gb ssd would be nice for quick boot up, etc.

And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My current home office pc was purchased in 2005, LMAO. it has 512mb ram.
