HELLO !
I'm trying to build up the best Rig for my budget so i could finally play my favorite and upcoming games without crying because i can't push it on High-Ultra.
No better place to ask for help and advice than on these forums
SO PLEEEEASE Tom's Hardware ! PIMP MY RIG !
Approximate Purchase Date: Around May 15th
Budget Range: $1200-1500
System Usage: GAMIIIIING ! I intend on playing TERA, Blade & Soul, Upcoming MMO's & Skyrim, Witcher 2, Crysis 2 and couple other FPS games.
Parts Not Required: Need everything ! Building from scratch !
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I use www.shopbot.ca to find the best prices ! I love DirectCanada.com & Bestdirect.ca because their prices are really good and they ship for free. Additional websites would be NCIX.ca and Newegg.ca if there are good deals.
Country: Canada
Parts Preferences: Would like to go with Intel so not really sure if i'd decide on buying a IvyBride CPU but the mobo definitly needs to be IB compatible.
No particular preference on Nvidia or ATI.
Overclocking: Yes.
SLI or Crossfire: In the future surely Yes.
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080 ( Would prefere between 23" - 24" Monitor )
Additional Comments: Would need an after market cooling system. Air or Water. ( Only for CPU and shouldn't be ugly xD )
I am going to go with a HAF X Case, I don't think on changing my mind on that.
