$900usd gaming Desktop with High Settings in BF3 and BF2.
I live in Taiwan, and must purchase everything locally.
Please advise on my system's limitations. I want to overclock the CPU and don't plan
on upgrading for 2 years. (ha, hopefully) I know the SandyBridge can't utilize the 3.0 Motherboard.
I will wait a week and see what the new i5 3750 price is..
Overclocking: Yes
SLI/Crossfire: No
Monitor: 1920x1080 (Dell U2311H)
Prefer: Not noisy, and looks aren't important.
So far, I can purchase these parts between two stores. (To see items go to my wish list)
