Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: Well, this is a cheap
Build so I won't be adding the latest GFX anytime
Soon, but a good month or so.

Budget Range: (e.g.: 300-400) -400$ after rebates and shipping unless shipping will only bring it up to 450ish$

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Guild wars 2 >.<, Lotro, A.v.A, Internet browsing, pr0n. Is that allowed? I used a zero..

Are you buying a monitor: No. Will, try at least, to hook up to my TV via HDMI.


Do you need to buy OS: No, have a Win7 32bit USB that I use just to set everything up, then download a 64 bit version and switch over via interwebs.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg.com (only since I can browse there items quicker via iPhone app) but any website that has the cheapest items.

Location: City, State/Region, Country - Pawtucket, RI, USA. No where near a Microcenter, don't bother. I can drive to a Best buy doe.

Parts Preferences: None. If I were to upgrade the CPU, I would get a new moBo also.

Overclocking: If I can, a little bit.

SLI or Crossfire: With a budget build, LOL.

Your Monitor Resolution: Idk. I have a Flat Screen TV

Additional Comments: As long as I can play Guild Wars 2 on low-med settings and have room to slowly upgrade, I'll deal. All the other games I play aren't as Demanding and I can play on my laptop.

And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading? My Laptop can't run GW2 and is basically falling apart. I only use it to play Minecarft about 20 mins a day before it starts over heating.

you can get playable FPS on performance preset @1080p and upgrade the GPU later.
