Trying to design a build for a friend.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: (e.g.: this week (the closer the better))
BUDGET RANGE: less than 950
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Nothing too heavy, but I have a pretty big budget so I want to use it.
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: Got nothing
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: newegg is best I spose.
COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: USA, NJ
PARTS PREFERENCES: None
OVERCLOCKING: Nope
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Probably not, won't be too much gaming going on
MONITOR RESOLUTION: Buying the monitor as well so could be anything. One I have picked out for now is 1920x1080
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Its mostly going to be used for email/internet with a bit of C&C, Civ. Most of what I've picked out is overkill, but I do have a pretty nice budget.
Phenom II 945 + Sapphire Vapor-X 5770 1GB $270
OCZ Fatal1ty 550W + F3 500GB $100
Antec 300 Illusion + 4GB Ripjaws 1600 CL9 $145
Windows7 + ASUS M4A87TD $190
Generic DVD-RW $19
Logitech Mouse + Keyboard $21
LG W2253VP-PF 21.5" 1920x1080 $170
Total $915
I'm not too sure about the motherboard, but I'm pretty happy with everything else. Anyone has any suggestions?
