Hey everyone!

My last build was 4 years ago, and with so many new hardware and graphic card that are out, I am soOooo confused on what is good or bad. I need your help! :sweat:

I will be ordering my stuff on newegg.com, and I am looking to build a solid gaming computer that would last me for awhile for the gaming world. I know there are many post on suggested builds, but I was curious if someone can budget a good build for me that would cost $600-$900.


Thanks again! :)

It would be nice to have alittle more info from you before people start listing builds at that budget.

Do you have any parts already that could be used? Disk drive, case, keyboard, mouse, ext ext

Do you have a monitor already?

What res do you plan to game at? In other words what kind and size monitor do you have or plan to buy?

What kind of games do you play and plan on playing in the future?

Do you prefer nivida or ATI?

Do you prefer intel or AMD?

What OS are you going to use, XP, Vista? Does the OS need to be included in the budget?

These are just some details that will really help the people help you get a PC fitting your needs and budget.

also add to that question, do you game, or do you want to do more in the way of video editing or HTPC-ing?
