This will be my second build and I'd like some advice to make sure I'm getting a good balanced system. I'm trying to price something between the two builds in the threads.
1. What YOUR PC will be used for. – Web Browsing, Gaming, Some Video Editing
2. What YOUR budget is. 750-850
3. What country YOU will be buying YOUR parts from. USA
4. N/A
5. IF YOU have a brand preference. - None on parts I do have a slight preference for purchasing from Newegg and Amazon since I already have accounts there and they both have reliable shipping. I will consider other reputable sellers for significant savings.
6. If YOU intend on using any of YOUR current parts, and if so, what those parts are. -1TB Hitachi HD
7. IF YOU plan on overclocking or run the system at default speeds. - Default Speeds
8. What resolution, not monitor size, will you be using? Dual Display Primary 1920x1080, secondary 1024x768
9. WHEN do you plan to build it? By Mid-October at the latest
10. Do you need to purchase any software to go with the system, such as Windows or Blu Ray playback software? - I will be running Windows 10 but it is separate from my budget.
This is what I priced out at Newegg right now. Prices below include shipping and are rounded up to the nearest dollar for convenience. I'm not counting rebates right now although they would influence purchase location
