Max Budget $2,000.
Current Total: $1,644.89
Timeframe: Tonight
Summary: About to pull the trigger on this developer build. I dont need to spend the full 2k, but if there is something that would make a big difference than I would consider spending extra. Looking to get feedback on part choice and quality/price. This build is for software and graphics development on an x64 windows 7 machine. I wanted a quad core with lots of ram, a fast main HDD for my apps and a second for storage + Multi Monitor setup. Any recommendations or feedback are very much appreciated.
I already purchased 2x 23" HDMI/DVI Monitors
