Hello everyone, I made a post earlier about upgrading a pc, but I think it will actually end up costing me more than just building a new one.
I don't want anything super intense, I mostly play F2P games now, with the occasional beta test (such as Tera), but don't plan on playing any big games. However, I do want to be able to play the games I currently play with as high graphic settings as possible, and also be able to record gameplay smoothly, since I do like to record some of my matches.
It'll be my first time actually building a PC myself, last time I had help from a friend. I'll do my homework, but some tips would be nice.
-Budget: My Budget Range can go up to $1000, but I honestly don't think I need a computer for that much with what I'm asking for. I can almost play any of the games I want on my laptop, but I don't want to burn the poor things fan out, and it's supposed to be for school (lol).
-Usage: Casual Gaming, Video Editing, Web Browsing, Movies
-Parts Not Required: Mouse, Speakers, Case (maybe), CD Drive (Maybe)
-Parts: There are some parts from my old desktop I thought I might be able to re-use, but I will change if needed.

-Sites: I like to purchase parts from Newegg, but any reliable site is okay.
-Country: USA
-Overclock: Don't plan on needing it
-Monitor: I was planning on buying an Acer screen 18-20in, not sure which yet.

I have a mouse I like, but I am looking for a new keyboard. I like the feel of flatter keys, such as laptop keys, I also like the keys to be kind of quiet, but I prefer $20-40 price range.
I prefer to run Windows 7, but I suppose that's something I can purchase on my own.
Let me know if I forgot to add anything you need to know.
Thanks.
