Hello everyone. I've been researching for 3 weeks now...I have a screaming headache.
This will be my first build, so any and all helpful suggestions are welcomed.
Thank you for your time.
Approximate Purchase Date: This week
Budget Range: $1200 After Rebates
System Usage from Most to Least Important: gaming, surfing the internet, streaming videos, watching movies
Parts Not Required: keyboard, mouse, speakers
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: any...willing to shop around to get the best deal
Country of Origin: U.S.
Parts Preferences: by brand or type: no preference
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Monitor Resolution: still not sure...just the one that will fit the overall build
Additional Comments: I'm looking for a well-balanced system that will play Civ-5, and "someday" Diablo 3.
I don't need the Highest settings, just stable - playable. Watch movies, surf, run multiple apps, webcam,
and Photoshop, ( which i hope to purchase in a few months). I would like 1 decent widescreen monitor now,
and have the ability to get a second one in a few months. I need Windows 7 Pro, to be able to run all my XP stuff,
(or so i have read in a few reviews). I also need a multi-card reader, DVD burner, 3.5 floppy, and at least 4 usb ports.
I hope i haven't put anyone to sleep...
Thanks in advance...Max
