Hello Everyone,

The last time I built a PC was probably in 2004. I havent built a PC or kept track of the new parts and new technology since i got out of school and tossed into the working world. I realized its time to build a new PC after seeing some nice new games and visuals. I have a budget of 1000 - 1500. Not including case, monitor or hard drive. I would like to get some ideas on builds and help from the general public. Thanks a lot everyone.
