The rest is kind of still up in the air as I don't know what brands are the best (but I guess that is a matter of opinion anyway).
I would like a Mid ATX Tower with perferably Top ventalation, and which fans run fairly quiet.
I would like a single hard drive for both system and storage (1TB).
I would like at least 8 GBs of ram.
I assume I would need at least an 850W power supply.
I would like a mobo that supports all of the above (LGA1155 B3).
I would like a 24" monitor with good response time and contrast ratio for best gaming experience.
A good cheap DVR.
Any accesories that the community would like to suggest. And thats about it.
Like I said, I am new to the building world and I don't have the knowledge to know what would be best for build a good gaming PC. Any help and information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
