Approximate Purchase Date: 1-4 months from now
Budget Range: $2000 max
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Programming, school work, etc.
Parts Not Required: Mouse
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.ca or canadacomputers.com
Country: Toronto, Canada
Parts Preferences: None really, except for the CPU and GPU. I don't need anything more powerful then the 3570k and yeah, I was going to get a 7950 or 7970, but I decided on the 670 instead.
Overclocking: In the future
SLI or Crossfire: In the future
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: I don't want it to be excessively loud, but I don't need it to be silent. Also, I will need a monitor and keyboard. For the monitor, i would prefer something that is around 22 to 24 inches, 1920x1080 and be LED backlight, preferably. For the keyboard, a backlight would be nice, though not mandatory and macros would be nice. Also, a non glossy finish is a must.
So, the parts I have already chosen are:
Case - Cooler Master Storm Trooper Case
Motherboard - Asus P8Z77-V LGA 1155 Intel Z77 Motherboard
CPU - Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz
Aftermarket Cooler - Thermaltake Frio
RAM - Patriot Gamer 2 Series 8GB
Graphics Card - EVGA GeForce GTX 670 FTW 2GB (just to see how much build would cost, will buy one with a better cooler when one comes out, probably MSI or Asus)
Hard Drive - Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache
SSD - Mushkin Enhanced Chronos Deluxe MX 120GB
DVD Burner - Asus 24x DVD Burner
PSU - Corsair Professional Series HX850 850W
Case Fans (Side) - Cooler Master Blade Master 120mm fans (would be nice if someone could find some fans that are better then these, but around the same noise level,less preferably.)
Speaker - Logitech Z523 40 Watts RMS 2.1 Speaker System
Total - $1,694.87, according to newegg.ca
So, I have said above, I will need a monitor, preferably LED backlight, 1920x1080 and between 22 to 24 inches, a keyboard with backlighting, preferably, and some macros, and, of course, non gloss finish, so, not a Blackwidow, unless its the Stealth. If you guys could recommend a better side fan then the one i have chosen, which is around the same noise level, that would be awesome.
