APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: This week or next
BUDGET RANGE: Under $1000, hopefully around 800.
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming, surfing the internet.
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: Could re-use my old monitor but its resolution in 1024x768?
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Newegg but doesn't really matter
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: USA
PARTS PREFERENCES: None really. maybe nvidia for physx, but i dont know if that does much
OVERCLOCKING: probably not, i dont know how. Is this overclocking difficult? I've never tried but im pretty good at figuring stuff out.
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: No for now, would like to leave room to add it in the future for an upgrade.
MONITOR RESOLUTION: doesnt matter
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Quiet and cool would be nice since i live in so cal and its a million degrees out. I want to get this pc for starcraft 2 and diablo 3 mainly and would like to run sc2 at its highest settings. I'll probably get other games like crysis as well but dont expect to max it out. I will also be using it to surf the internet.
