*Background Information*
Whats up NewFriends, the time has finally come to build my own desktop for gaming. I'm running on an old 4 year old Gaming Laptop and I've been saving up to build the best desktop I can build. I know how to build a desktop but I'm unsure about finding the best parts for my money. I've put quite a bit of money into Star Citizen so running that is my top priority even though it is still in development. I can always upgrade my GPU later too.
*Actual Information*
Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: Feb 23rd
Budget Range: $2000-2500
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming at Ultra for games like Star Citizen, Squad, Witcher 3, Star Wars:Battlefront, GTAV, CSGO, etc
Are you buying a monitor: Yes, looking for a 144Hz monitor.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.com
Location: Boone, NC, USA
Parts Preferences: Intel and Nvidia
Overclocking: Yes
SLI or Crossfire: Unsure, Opinions?
Your Monitor Resolution: 2560 x 1440 OR 1920 x 1080
Additional Comments: I wanna have a Chassis with tons of airflow and quiet. Also looking to get a K70 Vengenance and a new mouse (extra buttons on the side for macros in MMORPG) but I'm unsure what is the best mouse. I'm really interested in getting a good capture card and a good sound card. Heard the Corsair H100 Water Cooler is good? Any thoughts? I'm pretty drunk but this post I think is okay.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My Old Gaming Laptop is kill and I want to be able to run my games on the best settings for a $2000-2500 Desktop. I know how to build a desktop but a friend recommended that I come here because the community is knowledgeable and they can help me find the best parts for my money.
