APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: immediately
BUDGET RANGE: <800 (flexible if there is a great value that should not be passed)
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: I will use this as a general home computer. Mostly, it will be for internet usage, including VOIP and movie streaming. Need the capability to watch movies (downloaded and DVD). Occasionally, I will do some video editing. I would like to the option of gaming, but don't have any specifics in mind. HTPC is not off the table, but is not a must either.
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: monitor
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: none, but would prefer to limit the number of website where parts are ordered
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: will be shipping to overseas military address (FPO)
PARTS PREFERENCES: none
OVERCLOCKING: No
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Maybe
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1680X1050, but also HDMI to 52" TV
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: noise level is a competing concern with performance/cost
