Hey everyone,
I have an older laptop that's finally crapped out. I've built a few computers with my dad in the past, and have been wanting to get back into some gaming, so a homebuilt seems like fun. Hoping to get some critique or suggestions for improvement of a build I'm thinking about. Would like to be able to do some mainstream gaming and I value performance-per-dollar.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Today or sometime early next week.
BUDGET RANGE: 600-800 after rebates.
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Internet, gaming, movies.
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: N/A, will need everything.
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: newegg.com or comparable.
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: US.
PARTS PREFERENCES: None, but probably AMD given the budget.
OVERCLOCKING: Maybe.
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: No.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Build I'm thinking about is below.
