Dear Tomshardware forum go-ers,
I am new to the forum (please don't get angry if i accidentally post this in the wrong category) and new to the computer building experience in general. I am thinking about building a computer with parts from Newegg and i am going to need some help. My friend has been a member on this forum for over 2 years and he said that most people are nice and helpful. I want a computer that can play BF3 on decent settings with good framerate, and all other games on close to max settings with decent framerate (basically, i am looking to build a "good" gaming computer for under $1100. So far i have a new egg shopping cart that has parts in it that i think would be good for me, and i will copy and paste it down below. Feel free to tell me about my choices and give me insight. I really would appreciate it. Thanks!
