Hey all,

Looking to build a new gaming rig that will be explosive and run everything under the sun. I have no specific brands and no limit to amount, but I do have a great SSD and case already so leave those out.

Let me know your builds, including a windows version as well...hearing mixed reviews on 8/8.1...let me know what you recommend.

Thanks!

I guess I left it too general? Haha. Props to you Jerry. Okay, the actual limit would be $3000. I want to have a nice fluid, smooth system. I game mostly in GW2 MMORPG. I will be doing CAD work as well from this machine. Solidworks and Inventor depending on the client. So it has to be reliable. I do not think Titan Z is all that necessary for the environment I will be working in lol.
