Approximate Purchase Date: Hopefully tomorrow. My Main computer just died
Budget Range: $1000ish
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Movies. I'd like to be able to run Skyrim on highish settings.
Parts Not Required: OS, DVD burner, Larger Harddrives, Sound Card, Wireless Card, and monitors.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I'm okay with anything, but I prefer the Motherboard, Processor, and Ram be purchased from Mwave so I can buy their testing service. I've had really good luck with it in the past.
Country: USA, Wisconsin
Parts Preferences: by brand or type; No real brand preference.
Overclocking: I could be talked into it.
SLI or Crossfire: No need.
From mWave (I really like their assemble/test service for $10)
