This is a gaming/internet only system that I am building. I have spent hours looking into this as I have been out of the loop with the latest hardware. I mainly play or will play Swtor, Lotro, BF3, Skyrim, etc. What I have listed after tax/shipping puts me around $1090.00 and that is pretty much my max. Anything I can replace, get cheaper, combo? Does the compatibility of everything look ok?
I will be ordering online the Newegg and TD items but will head down to a Microcenter near me.
Thanks for input.
