Budget Range: (e.g.: 300-400) Before / After Rebates; Before / After Shipping: $1200
System Usage from Most to Least Important: gaming
Are you buying a monitor: Yes
so i have experience building many PC's but it has been a couple years so i am out of touch with the newest components, etc. i currently game on a decent Dell laptop but as with any laptop, it's sluggish. i need to start from scratch, even a monitor. only things i have are keyboard and mouse. i would post a starter build to work off of, but again, i just do not know what is worth the money these days for a good gaming rig. i normally do not ask for "free" help, but in the past the fine folks of the Tom's Forums have succeeded in helping so here i try once more. anyone? anyone? bueller?
p.s.
i prefer AMD on the proc side and NVidia on the GPU side but am open to Intel/ATi as well...
THANKS FOR THE HELP!
