Best gaming pc

[kiheibutterfly]

I'm looking to build an ultimate gaming pc for my son. He will use it primarily to play America's army and also to mix music. Any recommendations for a really good graphics and sound card. Not looking at top of the line just a little less. Thanks

I would build the rest of your system first, and save the soundcard for last. You'll need good speakers to take advantage of any soundcard.

There is simply not enough information here to answer your question. We need to know your budget. What you need to purchase, such as monitor/keyboard/mouse. Will you need to buy an operating system? Do you plan on any overclocking?

I do not need a monitor/keyboard/mouse, but I do need everything else that's going in the case. Looking for a light case as it will be shipped to Hawaii. Read somewhere that Lian Li PC-A05N was a light case. Probably going to use a Samsung SSD, but everything else is up in the air. Budget is not an issue, but I'm not looking at spending a lot on something that will be outdated in 3 mos. He is planning on connecting it to his TV, so don't know if getting a HTPC that's light is an option and still be able to fit everything in it. Still researching and learning. Thanks
