Hi guys!, I have NEVER built a pc before so I would really appreciate your help.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Next week
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: gaming, surfing the internet, watching movies, photoshop, sony vegas
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers, OS, Optical drive, hard drives
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: msy.com.au, centrecom.com.au
PARTS PREFERENCES: Intel CPU, Nvidia GPU
OVERCLOCKING: Not for the first few months, in future maybe
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: In the future, the MOBO im looking at has 2x PCIE slots so I can do it later.
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1440x900
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Doesn't need to be quite, I want the best stuff, on a budget .
Here's the parts list I've been working on.
1GB GTX 285 ASUS(GPU)
Q9650(CPU)
ASUS U-65GA 650W(PSU)
Antec 900(CASE)
ASUS P5Q3 DDR3(MOBO)
Corsair DDR3 4GB(RAM)
Which comes to about $1,700(AUSTRALIAN), prices are from my local pc shop. I like the CPU and GPU choice, I've heard that Corsair ram is good, but everything else I'm not too sure about.
