Hey guys,
here are my infos
Approximate Purchase Date: (e.g.: during the next month)
Budget Range: ( 800-1000) total
System Usage from Most to Least Important: (e.g.: gaming, surfing, watching movies)
Parts Not Required: ( keyboard, Speaker, OS) I have a 550W one. If I can I want to reuse it it is just 1 year old.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: (micro-center; mindfactory)
Country: (Germany) I am in the US right now so I proberbly will by here some parts and then Germany
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe (what is the exact difference? AMd vs Nvidia )
Monitor Resolution: (1680x1050)
In the end I thought about 2 builds.
Once: Radeon 7850 and an i5 2500K CPU
or: radeon 7870 and an i5 2400 CPU
What you guys think what is the better choice for playing games?
What chip set would you buy with each built?
When I figured that out i can move on to RAM, Hard-Drive...
I appreciate all your help
