Hello! I have not posted on this site in a very long time but every time I have I have had a great experience and the help as been top notch.
I finally have a bit of income to put towards a new computer for gaming. My current rig is running a Radeon HD 5700 series, so it's a smidge old.
I am looking for a new computer around 1000$ Canadian, I know this makes somewhat of a difference in terms of what I am able to afford.
I am not looking to steam right now and for my budget to get good FPS and steam doesn't seem very viable. I haven't been tech savvy in terms of specs for a very long time so I am asking for help in this department as I am already confused about liquid cooling systems, do I want one? Do I not? Is there just plain old fan systems? What components go with what? Am I going to screw any system I get up with the wrong PSU?
My other biggest thing is I have never assemebled my own PC either, so I am kind of scared to do it and have been looking at sites like CyberPowerPC and IBuyPower as well but again i'm so very wary as it's been so long i've spent any amount of money on a PC. I apologise for the wall of text but any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you for reading it!
