APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE:
A few days from now.
BUDGET RANGE:
$2,400-ish, its currently costing $2150
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT:
Home, gaming, internet, movies, college life
PARTS NOT REQUIRED:
Keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers, printer, basically I have everything except the actual tower itself.
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS:
newegg.com, google
PARTS PREFERENCES:
Own a 24" Monitor, 530 Watt 5.1 Logitec Sound System
OVERCLOCKING: No, it stays how it comes.
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 24", 1920x1200
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I want it to be a freaking wind tunnel, because even water coolers in the end use air to cool the water. I know I'm spending a lot on the processor - but I have the cash and want to put it on that.
I don't want a huge redonculus v8 heatsink but most definately want to keep my temps as low as I can.
In the end I'm looking to critiquie this for not just personal gaming, but longevity and high-end preformance and parts I'l be keeping around for another 5 years.
