Hi iam planning to buy a brand new computer within this month with the budget between $500-600 Max. Iam actually planning to buy the parts oversea from Hong Kong as in the actual store so i just wanna compare prices and also to build 1 so i can buy it there. So i was wondering what kind of parts i should buy. Thanks!
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: This Month.
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming and more gaming and minor video editing.
OVERCLOCKING: No SLI OR CROSSFIRE but iam open to options that would be better to have crossfire =)
MONITOR RESOLUTION: I have a 22" inch Monitor so 1680x1050, 1920x1080, 1920x1200 would be fine
Preferred Sites to check for prices to let me know:
http://www.canadacomputers.com/
http://www.ncix.com/
http://www.newegg.ca/
Or other Canadian sites
Video Card:
I heard the 5770 and 4850 is nearly the same. But there might be better ones that i dont know of so give me some options please. Thanks!
CPU:
Unknown. I also dont know which to get between Intel or AMD. And will Quad core better than dual core for gaming? What are the major differences?
MotherBoard:
Unknown. I also dont know which brand is good for a gaming PC.
RAM:
Depends on Mobo but would like to have at least 4GB if budget is too hard to manage then 2GB should be fine.
Parts and other stuff that are not needed:
Monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers, sound card, printer, Ethernet card, OS, DVD Drive.
Parts i already have:
Power Supply: OCZ Z-Series 550W 80+
PC Case
Hard Drive: 1.5T
Thank you!
