Approximate Purchase Date: Near the upcoming holidays, for some nice deals... hopefully.
Budget Range: I would like to stay under $800, but I can go to $1000.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, surfing the web, watching movies and music.
Parts Not Required: I need 'em all.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg
Country of Origin: USA
Parts Preferences: Never built my own, so I don't know what I would prefer. Whatever is in my budget and will get done what needs to be done. But, I would like a 24" 1080p monitor, I am willing to go smaller though. 20" at the least.
Overclocking: Doubtful. I don't know how to currently, but maybe someday. And unless it will benefit me greatly, or save me money, I'll pass for now.
SLI or Crossfire: Not sure what/how either of those work. So, whatever is best for my build.
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1200 would be great, but it doesn't have to be that.
Additional Comments: I don't need anything flashy, I just want to enjoy my games at max settings. A quiet PC wouldn't hurt, but isn't necessary.
Some of the games my girlfriend and/or myself currently play now are: Dungeon Defenders, FlyFF, MapleStory, Dragon Saga, Dragon Nest, and Torchlight. And who knows what else in the future. I don't play anything like BF3, CoD, Crysis and whatnot on PC, I leave that to my consoles. However, I can't say that I never would consider it. So, whatever works to make those games I play run perfectly at max settings is what I'm looking for.
Sorry, I haven't looked into parts too much, as I am totally new at this and I'm not sure what would work. This seems to be a great community and I was hoping someone out there wouldn't mind using some of their free time to help a noob out.
One last thing... I'm not sure if I'm ready to put it together myself, so about finding a professional to do it? Is it possible to have it built with the parts I choose and then shipped? Or would that just ramp up the cost a lot? I'm in a small town, so I don't know about any computer stores around here, but I could travel to one near me.
