Approximate Purchase Date: It's going down on Cyber Monday!
Budget Range: $700-$1000
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming (Mainly Diablo 3 and Skyrim), Movies, Light video editing.
Parts Not Required: Mouse, monitor, speakers.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg, Ncix.
Country: US
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: No
Monitor Resolution: 1680x1050
Additional Comments: As of now my build is looking at $815 thus far.
Any second opinions, comments or suggestions would be much appreciated. Also, I have purchased the SSD already and put it in my laptop temporarily and its running like a dream.
Not sure if this makes any difference, but since I'm splurging on black Friday, I'm going to buy only the essentials on cyber Monday, leaving the video card to purchase maybe a week or two later. ( I'm gonna borrow a GTX 250 from a friend as a temp card)
