Hey forums,
I am looking to build a new gaming rig, and it has been 4 years since my last real rig. I guess I'll use the template, as it seems to be the easiest way of getting a message across.
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Soon, very soon....
BUDGET RANGE: $600-750 After rebates (only way I'll be able to afford the damn thing)
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Gaming, Video Editing, Photoshop, Movies, Music
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: Monitor, speakers, keyboard, mouse
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: I really dont' care. Cheapest prices (including shipping)
PARTS PREFERENCES: AMD CPU for sure, I want either a 5850 or a GTX 460, whatever works out best
OVERCLOCKING: CPU (maybe) and definetely gpu
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: In the future, yes
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1680 x 1050 (might upgrade in the future, but it works for now.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: I want to be able to play any game....with ooh shiny settings. Also, I'm on a very strict budget, so any suggestions would be great.
