Thank you, in advance, for any input you can provide. I encourage you to be direct. I relied on you for my first build last year for my son and need your help again! My son has requested a Geforce GTX graphics card. I need your suggestions for best at this price and if I need upgrades to use it. If you have additional suggestions for upgrades, I'm listening. This is still a foreign language to me so please forgive any missteps (existing and future).
Approximate Purchase Date: For Christmas
Budget Range: I’d like to keep it under 300 but learned from build the preferred price never sticks – I don’t want to go over 400
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Recording, Gaming
Are you buying a monitor: He has two monitors (included in list below)
Parts to Upgrade: Graphics Card and and other necessary parts in order to run efficiently (e.g., power supply, memory). He has requested GeForce GTX??? Please advise.
Do you need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Amazon preferred but will use any
Location: Pewaukee, WI
Parts Preferences: I have no idea, used this website for this build last year and it has served very well.
Overclocking: No (We haven’t gotten here yet; I still don’t know what this is).
SLI or Crossfire: I don’t know (what?).
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920 x 1080
Additional Comments: Maintaining FPS during recording is important so please provide any additional suggestions you may have.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Upgrading graphics card for recording
Include a list of any parts you have already selected with descriptively labeled links for parts. Please do not post only links.
