Before i get started i want to thank those of you reading this right now and let you know that all response are very much appreciated...
I need Help putting together both a Computer station that can be used for both gaming and working, I'm gonna be graduating from high school come June and I wanna have a great computer setup before I begin College. I'm getting a job at either Target or Walmart come January, my school hooked me up with their training program which pays minimum til then. I can use just about everything I make between now and August to splurge on this
I need Suggestions for pretty much everything:
Case: Space is not an issue so thin is not what I'm looking for. Color doesn't necessarily matter since I'm willing to have it painted. Front usb hubs I'd like 4 or more, In a perfect world it could fit all of the components below and still have room to spare
Motherboard: I'm looking for something with plenty of room for accessories of the pci variety at least 4 slots for ram(I'm thinking four 4gb ddr3) (The higher the CPU the better)
Ram: I kinda already found a good deal: http://www.amazon.com/PNY-PC3-10666-1333MHz-Desktop-MD8192KD3-1333/dp/B004DHNAGM/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1321419859&sr=1-1 if you know of anything better, let me know
Graphics Card: I know these can get really expensive and I'm not looking to get the very best GCs that are over $1500, just something that can handle all the latest games with some leeway for future games. I don't want to run into a game my GC can't handle for a good while so the higher the GPU the better.
HDD:2 at least(one as my primary and one to back it up on once a week. I'm thinking 2TB, do I need more then that?)
CD/DVD drives:2 CD/DVD writable, I need at least 1 that supports blu ray.
Power Supply: I'm gonna want something that'll be able to handle everything I hook up to it and then some...
Monitors: I'm looking to get the best 1080p HD 27”(at least) LED monitor (Price range $250 - $350) from a quality manufacturer such as Dell, HP, Viewsonic, ASUS, Acer, you get the point.
Webcam: already found one: www.amazon.com/Logitech-1080p-Webcam-C910-Skype/dp/B003M2YT96/ref=pd_bxgy_e_img_b
Headsets:2 I need 1 that's wired with a long cord (my current headset is 6.5 feet and it's killing me), for when I'm at my desk, and one thats wireless for when I'm whereva I already found a good wireless one: www.amazon.com/Logitech-ClearChat-Wireless-USB-Headset/dp/B0015EY5RE/ref=sr_1_4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1321433639&sr=1-4
I've already decided what keyboard and mouse I will get
Keyboard: www.amazon.com/Logitech-Wireless-Solar-Keyboard-K750/dp/B004MF11MU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1321426212&sr=1-1
Mouse: www.amazon.com/Logitech-Wireless-Performance-Mouse-Mac/dp/B002HWRJBM/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1319720967&sr=1-2
