Approximate Purchase Date: (e.g.: this week (the closer the better)) Early June.

Budget Range: $400-500 The cheaper the better.

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Occasional Gaming.

Parts Not Required: Windows, and DVD recorder.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Havent ordered from any site as of yet besides amazon.com, heard good things from newegg. But really just wherever the parts are the cheapest.

Country: Wisconsin, USA

Parts Preferences: AMD

Overclocking: Yes / No / Maybe

SLI or Crossfire: Yes / No / Maybe

Monitor Resolution: as of now my current monitor only will allow a max of 1024x768. But I have a 20in Widescreen Television I was going to be using. Just waiting to get my new build.

Additional Comments: Just purchased Diablo 3 and it runs pretty slow on my current system on minimum settings. Looking to upgrade to a decent gaming rig.
