Hey there,
I've been looking to setup a dream-machine for myself. I was converted to MAC (I know, the DEVIL) seven years ago. I've had 3 macbook pro's since. I've been happy with them. They are portable and deliver in every aspect of my photo editing needs. But when it comes to gaming, they lack the performance I'm looking for. Thus, I'm finally taking the leap back.
I run 2x 23" displays while gaming + I like to watch a 1080p Movie at the same time on my tv.
What I want:
- I want to flawlessly run games at Maximum Settings (On one or two monitors)
- I want to be able to watch movies while playing games.
- I want to be able to stream and monitor chat while doing all of that.
Budget: 2000$ (Budget is not fixed (I live in Japan and won't get the prices that are found on NCIX or Newegg))
Approximate Purchase Date: (Within the next month)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming / Streaming / Movies
Are you buying a monitor: No (I already have 2x 23" Monitors and a 32" 1080p Tv) (Will eventually add a 3'rd 23" monitor)
Do you need to buy OS: Yes, Windows 7 please!
Preferred Website(s) for Parts:(Any) I live in Japan, so I'll probably have to order the parts from Amazon.jp (Specials, and discounts are not important as budget is not fixed)
Overclocking: Yes (Water Cooling, I don't know)
SLI or Crossfire: 2 screen gaming enabled, Yes please
Monitor Resolution: 1920 x 1080 (x3)
Additional Comments:
- I want the "Corsair Special Edition White Graphite Series 600T Computer Case With Side Panel Window" Because it looks sexy.
- Thunderbolt MoBo would be great
PS: This is my first time building... I'm a bit stressed about it!
