Approximate Purchase Date: This week, maybe the next. As soon as I feel confident in what I have.
Budget Range: $1000, I'd like rebates but sending the UPC code to the manufacture ruins Newegg's RMA, so I wouldn't want to send the rebates back until after 30 days.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming (SWTOR, L4D2, BF2: PR), Web surfing, word processing.
Parts Not Required: Keyboard, mouse, speakers, monitor.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg
Country of Origin: USA
Parts Preferences: Nvidia Video Card
Overclocking: I don't know anything about this so I'll say no.
SLI or Crossfire: No
Monitor Resolution: I think it's a 1440x900, tower won't boot up so I can't check and Google isn't helping me.
Additional Comments: Quiet, the one had become so loud I can't stand it. I have never made my own build before, I've replaced hard drives, graphics cards, ram, a CPU and I think I remember doing a sound card, but never a new build. So simple would be nice. I'd really like some quality hardware that's going to last and I don't have to RMA, I'd sacrifice performance for that security.
Also, I've done my best to check compatibility for all components, if you see anything wrong I'd appreciate that could be pointed out. I picked out a full tower, I don't know if I really need that but I figure that's my best chance of everything fitting in the case and making sure the GC fits out the back. I'm paying $120 for a PSU and trying to remind myself that is a good price and I'm not wasting money. I looked through RAM and tried to find the best I could for a decent price, but it has spikes all over it. What's going on there? Finally, I'm not a big fan of rebates because they prevent me from RMAing with NewEgg.
I know I'm just some guy you've never met so I want to say thanks for reading and thank you for you input.
