Hey everyone. First time builder so I have no idea whats compatible with what, and which parts are considered better than others. I'm not a complete noob but I have never attempted to build a tower so I need some help.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: By the end of 2009.
BUDGET RANGE: Up to $800 (its ok if it goes a little over or under).
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming, video editing (nothing to major).
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: OS, monitor, speakers, keyboard and mouse.
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: newegg.com
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: U.S.
PARTS PREFERENCES: Intel (most likely Quad instead of i5/i7)
OVERCLOCKING: No
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1920 x 1080 (23'')
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I'm main looking for a good tower to play Fallout 3 (and other high end games) on high quality. I have a 23'' monitor so I want to take full advantage of it. I plan to buy Win7 Home Premium (64Bit). Also, I'd like to burn some CDs and DVDs with a decent drive
If you have any other questions, just ask. THANKS for all your help!
