Purchase Date: Approximately 2 weeks, maybe 3.
Budget Range: $2000-$2200USD .. Willing to spend a little more for significant performance increase.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming/live streaming, drawing(photoshop), basic tasks(documents/excel)
Are you buying a monitor: Yes - dual monitors!
Parts to Upgrade: Everything brand new.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes, I think I'd rather have Windows 7 then 8, if that's possible/reasonable?
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: ibuypower or other fully assembled site, not interested in building it myself.
Location: Portland,Maine
Parts Preferences: Intel Processor, Nvidia graphics
Overclocking: No? I don’t really know how to do this.
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080 or 1920x1200
Additional Comments: I do like the windowed/fancy cases, but it is not a priority. I will mainly be playing Final Fantasy XIV, CSgo, Sims4, other MMOs, etc.. I would like to be able to stream if possible!
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: I haven’t had a gaming PC in years and I can finally get one! I'm excited to start playing newer games, raiding, and streaming, since my old laptop hasn't been able to do those things for awhile now. Also, I noticed a lot of builds that have liquid cooling, but I don't know anything about maintaining/using that.
