Extremely close to buying an Alienware X51, but I feel I have the capacity and patience to build my own PC. Hopefully, it will be a good learning experience.
Approximate Purchase Date: Dec 26, 2012
Budget Range: $1,500
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Watching Movies, Internet
Are you buying a monitor: No, already have the BenQ RL2450HT http://www.benq.us/product/monitor/rl2450ht/
Do you need to buy OS: Yes, I heard Windows 8 is horrible so I guess I'll be using Windows 7.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg and Amazon
Location: NY
Parts Preferences: Intel
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: If you could please include a good internal wireless card in the build that would be fantastic! This will be my first attempt at building my own PC! I would love to play games like DayZ, Natural Selection, L4D1/2, Portal1/2, and future Valve games! Thank you for your help!
EDIT: I do not need a keyboard/mouse/sound card.
