Hello,
I am in need for my computer that will last me through collage. Unfortunately I am a total noob when it comes to GHz or clocks. I am willing to spend $2000-$3000 on it if it will last me through collage. I am planning on being able to do anything from playing video games to whatever else collage students do on computers. From my brief research online I don't have good idea for what I am looking for. Will I have to make my own pc or is there on the market that meets my needs?
Ps: I am by no means loyal to these if there is a necessity for something else (ie: I really need a 32g ram!) please tell me. I have what I think I want and how much I can spend on it.
1/2t to 1t hard drive //price range >$500
Ram 8g or 16g //price range >$200
CPU 4-6 core < 3 ghz //maybe intel i7? Price >$500
Graphics card (I have absolutely no idea) //price range: >$200? $300 max?
Motherboard (no idea) //price: >$300? $500 max?
I don't need a cd burner or anything like that but am I missing anything important?
As a side question on the tech sites I've been to they keep talking about how crisis will "bring a pc to its knees" what would it take to play crisis on max settings? (not that this pc needs to)
