Hey guys. I haven't built a computer in over a decade and would like to ask your opinions on a couple of things.
Requirements: Gaming, specifically be able to play Skyrim at high/ultra settings at 1920x1080. No overclocking. Just looking for stable, easy and reliable build.
Preferred: Intel chipset, budget of $500-$600, USA, Newegg and Amazon only if possible, within the next month.
I don't need a monitor, OS, mouse or keyboard. Don't need an SSD (I don't mind waiting that extra 10-15 seconds on bootup).
Looking for: CPU, motherboard, GPU, 8gigs ram, case, PSU, 1-2TB HD
First off, is this even possible or am I setting my budget too low? This is going to be my first build so I don't want to spend a lot. I plan to upgrade every 1-2 years so looking for the best "budget" setup.
I've been trying to catch up on the latest stuff but there's so much info out there. What's the minimum budget I should be expecting? If this isn't doable, I'll just have to work and wait an extra couple months. Thanks a lot for your help.
