Hey all. This will be my first time building. One question I have before I start is whether I should buy this thing now or wait until the summer. I know November has lots of sales on parts thanks to Black Friday and stuff. But as of right now I live in a dorm with limited space and don't have as much money. If I wait until the summer I will maybe have a bit more money and I'm moving into an apartment later that year. Mostly I want to know if this is the right time to buy parts and build since I want this computer to last for some years (unlike my laptop which is dying around 2 years right now). I also want to be sure I can reuse things if I ever want to upgrade. Hope I filled out everything right, sorry if I didn't.
Approximate Purchase Date: Late November/Black Friday? or in the Summer
Budget Range: 600-700 after rebates
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Games (WoW, League of Legends, Dungeon Defense TF2 (doesn't have to be at max settings, I just want to be able to play without lag)), Internet browsing, Word Processing, Website Editing, Movie watching
Parts Not Required: I need everything, except maybe a mouse.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Doesn't matter as long as they are reputable.
Country of Origin: United States
Parts Preferences: No preference
Overclocking: Doesn't really matter
SLI or Crossfire: Doesn't matter
Monitor Resolution: I also need to buy a monitor, so any links to good sales would be good. It doesn't have to be huge. I'm okay with a small monitor.
Additional Comments: For the mouse, keyboard, speakers, it doesn't have to be the gaming type. I also need a Windows 7 install disk. I really don't know that much about computers so I couldn't answer the overclocking ,etc. questions. If you have any advice please feel free to let me know.
