I want to build a computer based on either an i5 or an i7 processor. Priorities for this system are gaming > movies > gimp > general browsing. Looking for high performance graphics and sound quality with little-to-no computer sounds (quiet fans preferred, etc.). So far I've looked up some items and I am probably missing a few things from this list, I also need to add wireless capability. The computer is intended to play SC2 on ultra graphics and last for many years to come.
