After getting a new job, I am looking to finally upgrade my old computer. The computer will be used for gaming, photo editing, and probably some data analysis. My budget all together is around $1,000 to $1,200 and I do plan on upgrading the computer down the road. Right now the only thing I am set on is the i7-930 because I am lucky enough to work near a Micro Center and got it for a reason price. Here is what I how so far:
CPU: Intel Core i7-930 Bloomfield 2.8GHz ~ $200 [Micro Center]
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R ~ $210
GPU: GIGABYTE GV-R583UD-1GD Radeon HD 5830 ~ $200
Memory: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 6GB (3 x 2GB) ~ $155
Hard Drive: SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM ~ $75
Optical: SAMSUNG 24x DVD Burner
PSU/Case Combo: Lancool ATX Mid-Tower & 650W PSU combo ~ $150
Thanks!
