EDIT: Just saw I'm not supposed to post new builds here, my bad. Is there a way to move this post, or should i re-post in Systems?
Hey everybody, first time poster here and first time PC builder.
Here is the build I'm planning on going with: Le Tigra
I've done some homework, and I made a couple other builds (one Intel/NVIDIA, one AMD), and decided to go Blue/Green. I'll post my other builds too if anyone wants to see them.
Please give me your thoughts on the build, offer up suggestions. I'm on a bit of a budget, I want to stay as close to 1K as possible, this build is at a little over $1300, and thats pretty close to the max I'm willing to spend.
I want the option to overclock my PC in the future, but am not considering doing it right away. I'm still just a nub.
This is mostly going to be a gaming PC. League of Legends is what I play most right now, with Tf2, minecraft, portal, Guild Wars (1), and Civ 4 being indulgences of mine from time to time. As you can see, I'm pretty much a filthy casual, but that might change in the future, so I want something that can handle more demanding games at decent settings.
The case I've selected, the Define R5, I'm very much in love with. Feel free to offer other suggestions, but you're gonna have to be pretty convincing to take me away from it. Quietness is also a plus, but not a necessity.
120hz+ refresh rate on the monitor is a must. Once you go up, you never go back.
Of course, Le Tigra is tiger themed (this build is gonna be ridiculously good looking): black, white, and orange. I also plan on putting some Orange LED lining in there, and if anyone has tips to change the power LED color on the case, let me know.
Thanks peeps!
