I would appreciate if someone could look over the list of parts below and give advice on whether they will work nicely together or if some part would work better than one currently selected.
Thanks in advance!
Approximate Purchase Date: No later than Tuesday Aug 11th
Budget Range: Up to $1400
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Work (writing code, solidworks, PCB Design software, documentation), some video and photograph editing, occasional movies (movie nights twice a month).
Are you buying a monitor: No. I currently have three working monitors that do not need upgraded yet.
Parts to Upgrade: (e.g.: CPU, mobo, RAM) **Include Power Supply Make & Model If Re-using**
Do you need to buy OS: Yes. Will purchase OEM Windows 7 Pro
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I've got all the parts sourced on Amazon
Location: Fairbanks, Alaska. No real good parts stores in the area, so everything needs bought online and shipped up.
Parts Preferences: No strong preferences in terms of parts make/models. I have an AMD CPU currently so thought about trying Intel this time around.
Overclocking: No Need
SLI or Crossfire: No Need
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920 x 1080. I have three monitors running concurrently.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: I'm using an old personal computer for work, and we have enough income now to upgrade to a new work-owned system.
