Ok So I'm currently a network student doing a 4 month co-op term, making pretty good cash and I haven't updated my computer in 4 years lol. I was just wondering if anyone could help build me a new computer which could get the best for my money which is $1200.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE:
Looking to order it within 1-2 days max.
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT:
Its going to be a gaming computer, but it should be able play the new Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 2 on max details without any fps lag, as well as any other high graphics demanding game coming out in the future. Plus being able to run multiple VM wares without lag would be a additional bonus.
PARTS NOT REQUIRED:
Don't need a Monitor, Keyboard & Mouse and CD Drive and Speakers.
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS:
I'd prefer http://www.tigerdirect.ca/ but if you can't http://www.newegg.ca/ is fine.
PARTS PREFERENCES:
I've had both Intel/AMD base computers in the past and I liked them, so it doesn't matter which you pick.
OVERCLOCKING:
Yes if possible, as for SLI/CROSSFIRE whatever is honestly the better deal.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
The case doesn't have to be flashy, just be able to fit everything in it.
Thanks for your help!!
edit: I've been looking at prebuild PC's @ http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/category/category_tlc.asp?CatId=114
if you think any of those are built well enough tell me, thanks.
