800$ - 1000$ gaming machine

[nayrbaased]

hi everyone.

my computer broke not long ago and i wanted to get into building a system for myself. i need your help on what parts i should choose.

games i play are TF2, SC2, and League of Legends. Running BF3 at a stable framerate is what I'm aiming for, though.

Approximate Purchase Date: at least before the end of the month. basically 4-5 weeks

Budget Range: 800$ - 1000$ USD before rebate. doesnt really matter as long as it's somewhere close to it.

System Usage from Most to Least Important: gaming

Parts Not Required: keyboard, mouse, monitor (suggest one anyways though), speakers, OS

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg.com

Country of Origin: United States of America

Parts Preferences: antec 900 case if you can help me fit it into the budget. otherwise, a black ATX case will do., i like intel processors more but it doesn't really matter.

Overclocking: Maybe

SLI or Crossfire: Maybe

Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080

Additional Comments: would like to have a quiet pc. don't care for lights and *** but it's cool.

thanks for the help guys

awesome, that was fast! the case looks really great and i'm liking that i5. i7's are too good for me heh.

also forgot to mention that i have the OS already, my bad

 

[cutebeans]

Not really bro, I7 is worthless for gaming.

The case is a 2010 Tom Hardware recommended buy. You should take it.

 

[nayrbaased]

yea probably will, the case looks really sick.

i'm thinking about this for the video card, is it good?

Yes that's good, but why 2gb? 2gb is only useful for monitors with over 1080p resolution. Mainly multiple monitor set ups.

 

[cutebeans]

Oh, that's why it was so expensive. Right now though, the 560ti is the best.

 

[nayrbaased]

Alright. thanks for the help guys. i think that will do for now
