Approximate Purchase Date: Picking up parts staring May
Budget Range: $2000... ish
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, school, internet
Parts Not Required: Monitor
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg
Country: 'Merica
Parts Preferences: Nvidia, Intel
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: This is my first build attempt, I've had input from friends. I'm most likely going to be picking up the 3570K, for the efficiency and slightly increased performance. For gaming, I will do D3, BF3, SC2, Shogun 2, and various other PC games I haven't had the chance to play on my POS laptop. For school, I may end up using some modeling software for my major.
I will be piecing this together, and I will have enough money to have purchased everything by mid-June
Here is the list on Newegg. I'm not opposed to going to other reputable locations for business, but Newegg has just treated me well in the past.
Any and all comments welcome!
