Hey everybody I am going to attempt to build a computer (it's my first) for gaming, school, and surfing the web. I will be playing games like Counter-Strike 1.6 ( I know my P3 can run it), the James Bond Games, and games like that.
Approximate Purchase Date: throughout the next few months
Budget Range: 400-450
System Usage from Most to Least Important: School, Gaming, Surfing the Internet with a hundred tabs open
Parts Not Required: keyboard, mouse, monitor, OS
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Whatever is cheap and reliable
Country: USA
Parts Preferences:AMD cpu
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe
Monitor Resolution: 1280x780 I know it isn't the best I'll be getting a new one
Additional Comments: Needs to be easily upgradeable, last 3+ years, work well with windows 8 from our knowledge of it. If needed I can stretch the budget to $500. I also want to be able to play new games coming out at medium at 1280x780. Thanks everybody
