Approximate Purchase Date: Tonight/ASAP!
Budget Range: Would like to get down around $850 if possible
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Running VM's and Gaming
Are you buying a monitor: No
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: cheapest?
Location: USA
Overclocking: In the future
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1900x1200
Additional Comments: Will be running multiple VM's with CPU intensive programs running 24/7. Want a system that can handle this abuse.
Mostly concerned about the motherboard and PSU. I will be purchasing a better gpu and probably overclocking in the future, will this PSU be able to handle that?
