Hello everyone, I'm back to rebuilding my PC. My current one is actually relatively new, built a year ago. However, I am planning to sell it for more than I spent on it to gain a profit mainly because I enjoy building computers and I don't like my computer as it is.
My Current Computer:
i5 2500k 4.2GHz
Hyper 212+
MSI Z68A G43 G3 (such a bad budget motherboard, don't buy it please)
Gigabyte Radeon HD 6850
8GB DDR3 G.Skill RAM
500GB Seagate Barracuda
550 OCZ Fatal1ty PSU
Antec 300 Illusion
Approximate Purchase Date: Whenever I can sell my computer
Budget Range: $700 before rebates
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Recording
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg, microcenter
Location: USA
Parts Not Required: Windows 8, 120GB SSD (will use to hold myself over until Christmas for a HDD), Monitor, Mouse, Keyboard
Parts Preferences: Intel, Sandy Bridge (Ivy Bridge too hot for OC)
Overclocking: Yes, definitely, trying for 5.0GHz
SLI or Crossfire: A possibility
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080 , 1680x1050
Additional Comments: Needs to be relatively fancy looking, quiet if possible
