Hey all,
I'm trying to build my first PC. Basically, my goal is to have a build that can handle heavy Excel use (files as large as 25,000 KB), dual monitors, multitasking, and great resolution. I'd also like the option to be able to upgrade to a better graphics card if I decide to play Rome Total War II again. Also, I'd like it to be Windows 10. I have a MacBook now, but I'm going back to Windows.
I've never built a PC before nor do I know much about specs for certain components. I do know, from what I've been told, that to handle what I want, I would need a capable a CPU and enough RAM, roughly 12gbs or more.
I'd also like to keep total spend under $650.00, and I hope I can build a PC at this price. I'm willing to compromise on some of my "wants." The $650 will be excluding the two monitors, only the tower and its components.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
