Hi All!
I have been building my own machines for over 20 years, but have been completely out of the loop for the last 4-5 years.
It is time to get back into the biz and build a new gaming rig.
Approximate Purchase Date: Probably within the next month.
Budget Range: Hoping to keep it under 1000$
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming.
Parts Not Required: speakers, OS.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.com
Country: US
Parts Preferences: Intel CPU, leaning toward an i5. Not sure about the GPU...
Overclocking: Maybe, but not at all costs and not necessarily right now.
SLI or Crossfire: No.
Monitor Resolution:would like to go 1920x1080 or 1920x1200
Additional Comments: Was trying to figure out if i should just try and go with a gaming laptop, not sure if there is anything good enough at the price range.
I work in the video game industry, so i want to be able to play latest and greatest @ high settings, but not sure i can manage to get a rig that will afford that in the price range.
