Hey all, this is my first build and I want a silent and cold gaming pc.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: 1 to 2 Weeks
BUDGET RANGE: $1000-1200
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming and School work.
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: I need everything
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: newegg.com but I'm open minded
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: U.S.
PARTS PREFERENCES: Reliable
OVERCLOCKING: Maybe
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Maybe
MONITOR RESOLUTION: I haven't decided on a monitor yet but I want the resolution to be 1920X1080.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I want the computer to be as quiet as possible. And does anyone know if anyone sells PC clones of the wired aluminum mac keyboard with the low profiled keys?
Thanks
