Hello everyone, just registered since this is nearly undisputed top place for the help and discussions I'm looking for. I'm going to be building my first computer, I've seen the newegg official video of how-to, and will rewatch it as I build my rig. This is it here:
http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=27396248
I'm just wondering if there's anything like major flaws with compatibility, any suggestions or substitutions, and if anyone has had good results with something similar. I am doing this to go from PS3 to PC gaming, since I really do enjoy the games I can run now. I can't really run them well, but a mouse for aiming and such feels SO right. As such, I'll need something to run games like: TF2, L4D2, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: CS, GTA IV, and Crysis; and to be able to run some current and future games like: Battlefield 3, Far Cry 3, etc. I doubt with these I'll be able to run to-be-released games and BF3 like I want to, so ANY sort of suggestions are encouraged. I don't really have a budget, but I'd really like to keep it under $1,000. I only have $350 now, and it will take a while to get the rest. I'll likely order these all from newegg, but if someone can find a lower price on another site I'd like to know about it.
