Approximate Purchase Date: Cyber Monday-XMAS (is there any items I should buy right now, and is there some I could wait till later for cheaper? I'm in no rush) I have a moderate desktop right now that I got from Costco and is still in the exchange time frame, but realized I wanted more power for gaming.
Budget Range: 1500 after rebates hopefully.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming (LOL and WOW for now, in the future D3 and BF3), stream movies, blah blah
Parts Not Required: keyboard, mousem, and speakers. I have a monitor, (Samsung SyncMaster AS300, willing to accept recommendations), I could yank out the old HDD from and old desktop.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: i have no preference really, only been browsing around newegg and amazon
Country: USofA
Parts Preferences: I've read in many threads the 15-2500 is the popular choice. For GPU, I was thinking of getting of one 6950 right now, and the other later. Maybe both at the same time. suggestions?
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Yes / Maybe - not right away, in the future yes.
Thanks in advance!
