1. What YOUR PC will be used for. That means what types of tasks you'll be performing.
-Above all, it's a gaming rig
-Light editing and PS work
-Live streaming
-Multitasking
2. What YOUR budget is. A price range is acceptable as long as it's not more than a 20% spread
$1400-1500 USD
3. What country YOU will be buying YOUR parts from.
USA
5. IF YOU have a brand preference.
Prefer Nvidia, and most likely Intel
6. If YOU intend on using any of YOUR current parts, and if so, what those parts are.
-Using all my current peripherals, CD drive, as well as my two monitors (24" and 23")
7. IF YOU plan on overclocking or run the system at default speeds.
-No plans to overclock, though I may in the future once I learn to
8. What resolution, not monitor size, will you be using?
1920x1200
9. WHEN do you plan to build it?
Realistically I'd like to have everything ordered within a week
*Note: I already ordered Win 7 and a CPU cooler
---------------------
So with that being said here's what I've pieced together to far.
CPU - Undecided between THESE THREE
GPU - EVGA GeForce GTX 680
MOBO - ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77 LGA 1155
PSU - Could use some suggestions
RAM - G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB)
HDD - Looking for a 1-2 TB drive
SSD - Looking for a 128GB SSD. but unsure of what brand/model to go with
Case - A Spacious full tower would be nice, open to suggestions here
Don't think I'm missing anything, so let me know what you guys would add/change.
-Thanks
