Approximate Purchase Date: within the month
Budget Range: $2,000 or under before rebates and after shipping/taxes
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Photo editing (large files), Video editing
Are you buying a monitor: Yes... I'd prefer something white 17-21".
Parts to Upgrade: none... I have to get everything from scratch.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Doesn't matter though I'd prefer to have everything from the same place if possible
Location: Tennessee, United States
Parts Preferences: Doesn't matter as long as they're reputable.
Overclocking: I probably won't have the need
SLI or Crossfire: Don't know what these are
Your Monitor Resolution: I'd prefer at least 1920x1080... though whatever will look best with the size screen I want really.
Additional Comments:
- Quiet would be nice. I don't want to have to turn my volume up really loud to compensate.
- I also need a case... preferably something more on the compact side (but still upgradable) and nothing too out there looking. My room is pink/white so I'd like something that wouldn't stand out too much. The looks aren't crucial though.
Gaming is the primary reason I want a new computer. I want to run things on high-ultra settings for years to come. I like single player games (like Tomb Raider and Skyrim) but also MMOS (like WoW) and things like Dota 2. I'm not limiting myself to just these though, I just haven't been able to properly try any others because my current laptop crashes when I do.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: My current computer is an Asus Zenbook (one of the lower end versions) and it just doesn't seem cut out to play games. Skyrim is practically unplayable. I lag like crazy when doing WoW (I get like 7-13 fps on low settings.) I just feel severely limited. There's also the fact that I can't connect a mouse to my laptop for some reason so I have to run around trying to do things with a trackpad which isn't easy.
Originally I was thinking about getting the Asus G751JY but $2300 is really too expensive for me.
