Hey all,
I'm currently looking into building a new desktop. I want it primarily for gaming of course and have been researching and reading around. I'm leaning towards these components here, though I haven't decided on a PSU/CD Drive/Motherboard/Heatsink. I have about $1000 to $1300 to spend as I mentioned and I'm trying to include the monitor in that. Any help would be greatly appreciated in deciding new parts or suggesting better ones than what I have here!
