I would like to throw my hat into the new build arena, and query the ever knowledgeable members here about 2 possible builds.
Newegg wishlist links to the two are
Non-SLI almost budget build
and
SLI, upgradeable build
The second build is more intended to allow me to tinker and add components for a decent amount of time, while the first build is nearly complete.
I will be using this for gaming, mostly RPG and Diablo types of games, so playing Crysis is not an issue. My budget has a hard ceiling of $1000, and I would like to spend less if possible.
I have monitor, peripherals and optical drives already, and enough other drives for storage space, so the primary HDD needs to be performance based not raw storage.
I'm looking for advice on the best places in the build to push, and where I can pull back to make more room in the budget.
Thanks for your thoughts.
