Hello, I want to build a desktop for gaming and my graduate school work. I will need a monitor, keyboard for this also. I don't want to spend over 700 for everything at the moment, but I am willing to budge a bit if its worth it. I am also interested in a blu-ray drive for the unit as I will be occasionally running movies to my 1080p 55in TV (unless the DvD drives upconvert to 1080p?).
Looking to build a budget gaming PC (first build)
