So yeah, getting ready to attempt my FIRST build, but I'm not 100% confident that I'm on the right track. Opinions and tips would be very appreciated, as would any ideas for extra components/coolers/etc. Hopefully I'm not completely wrong in my selections and what-not, but I certainly wouldn't mind any criticism or alternative approaches to what I'm attempting here.
And, as far as that goes, I'm attempting to set-up a $1,000 build here, give or take, like, $200. That is, $1,200 max, roughly. So, there it is, and thanks for any words on this in advance, Yeah?
Approximate Purchase Date: September/October
Budget Range: $1,000 - $1,200 (though somewhat flexible)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Web-Surfing
Are you buying a monitor: No
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg.com, but I'm definitely flexible on that note
Parts Preferences: AMD (for cost) and NVIDIA
Overclocking: Maybe (though certainly not a major priority)
SLI or Crossfire: No, for the time being
Your Monitor Resolution: Currently at 1600 X 900
Why I'm upgrading: It's time for me to finally get a PC I can be satisfied with. Something with teeth, especially compared to the less than stellar Dell, uh, thing I'm currently using at the moment, Haha!
And here's the build as it stands, currently. Again, this is my first build, so please take mercy upon me, Haha! ANY advice would be appreciated greatly, and any ideas and experienced opinion will be taken VERY seriously, trust me.
Thanks
