Approximate Purchase Date: This week
Budget Range: Between $1200 - $1300, possibly up to $1400 if its much better.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: gaming, live-streaming
Are you buying a monitor: No
Parts to Upgrade: New build
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.com
Location: Omaha, NE, United States
Parts Preferences: None in particular, whatever gets the job done
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe
Your Monitor Resolution: 1680x1050
Additional Comments: The primary focuses for me would be being able to play games at a fairly high quality and hopefully being able to live-stream games without losing too much fps in game. Not certain what I should really be expecting for that with this budget. Obviously the higher the settings I'm able to comfortably stream at the better, but of course I'm not expecting to be able to play Battlefield 3 max settings and be recording too.
I considered finding parts and on newegg and posting them, however I figured that the people here would have a better idea, and I'm not really that picky on the actual parts if it gets the job done.
Willing to add anymore information that would be useful that I failed to include.
Why Are You Upgrading: I'm having a hard time running several games at all (Guild Wars 2/Battlefield 3) and live-streaming is pretty difficult. (low fps in game, high cpu usage, etc.)
Thank you for reading. Hopefully I'm not being too vague.
