I have never built a computer myself before, but would like to. I am looking at doing a computing degree at University, so would like to get myself a new computer when i start the course in about 2 years. I know this is quite early to be talking about getting a new system ,with loads of changes probably going to happen in that time, but i am really new to this so need as much help as i can get.
I am looking for a computer that would be suitable to do the following things:
[*:25858f4734]Multimedia Use (Movies, Music, Video)
[*:25858f4734]Web Design
[*:25858f4734]Standard Work (word processing, excel spreadsheets, desktop publishing)
[*:25858f4734]Use as a computer for programming on
[*:25858f4734]Play games at high spec, top graphics, etc without a lot of lag.
I know this is quite a big list, and i am looking at doing with maybe a maximum of £2000, maybe £300 if i get a student loan, so i do not know if this will be hard to do or not.
I have nothing planned for what i want as hardware, so i would like any ideas from you that will help me in making choices.
I will mention now that even though i am looking at doing a computing degree i am not extremely good on the hardware side, and do not know what most of the jargon means.
I thank you in advance for your help.
