Recently discovered this section of Tomshardware.com. My budget is $800 not including a monitor. I would like it to contain USB 3.0, an i5 Haswell and a fast reliable SSD. No need for Mouse or Keyboard. Some future proofing would be nice as well.
Approximate Purchase Date: This Week
Budget Range: $7-800 after shipping
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Internet, movies, video editing, gaming
Are you buying a monitor: No
Do you need to buy OS: No (Have 64-bit Windows 7)
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg
Location: New York, NY
Parts Preferences: Intel Haswell CPU, USB3.0, good SSD
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1,920 x 1,200
Additional Comments: Prefer a build that will be fast on loading times as well as a quiet & clean looking case.
I look forward to the advice from everybody.
EDIT:
With X79's help, I now have a better idea of where my build is headed, but I have decided to try and keep costs down a bit (7-800). So the following is my first build attempt, http://pcpartpicker.com/user/RRover/saved/1InZ . I would appreciate advice, be brutal if you must. Also, I only need an SSD now since I have a WD black drive.
Thanks!
