Hi Guys
I have a budget of $4k (inc tax) using PC part builder site to work out parts, costs etc.
Don't know much about building computers and a friend from overseas gave me some advice on parts I should consider .
I'm about to start a new remote contract and would appreciate advice on building a new rig.
My thinking is once I have the system parts all selected within my budget I will go to NCIX or Memory Express as they build computers from the parts you've chosen.
I was originally thinking of just going down to one of these stores and letting them help me but having read mixed reviews on some staffs knowledge and their sales protocol of selling surplus stock. I would feel a lot happier going in with my list of parts I want.
I've attached the link from PC Part Picker of the selected components so far and would be grateful if any of you could just complete it and re post the link.
Regarding the list I do not need software, monitors or peripherals. I'm not sure if I need to purchase a operating system either as I have Win 7 Pro 64-bit disc which is prompting to free upgrade to Win 10 on my current PC. My thinking is when when I restore my back up to the new rig using the Win 7 disc I could then free upgrade to WIn 10 (or not)
(again please forgive my ignorance if that's not the case and I will need to buy a operating system then so be it)
