Hello fellow members,
I'm new to the community and looking for some advice. I recently tried ordering from cyberpowerpc.com. I am not a big fan of these guys to be honest, based on what I have read about them. I have had some annoying conversations with these guys as well.
Now I am looking to build my own rig, but will need the advice and direction of some experienced ones here.
I am looking to build a $1,500 gaming PC. I will be playing on this monitor which I currently already purchased:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009C3M7H0/ref=oh_aui_...
It is a 27" Asus PLS Monitor 1440p. I know that it is only 60hz but quite frankly I enjoy the visuals more than the max fps. This monitor is in the same class as the IPS from my understanding.
Not only do I need a build that this monitor can compliment, but this is also my first build. Please, please, please send me links to the best "how to build your own pc" videos. I have never done this before and need detailed instructions.
Thank you
