Well I just recently decided to build another computer for a second location. And of course Black Friday is upon us and so I wanted to see if you guys good give me good suggestions on what parts to go with. I'm out of touch of what would be the best deal for what I'm looking for and what parts are compatible, so any help is GREATLY appreciated.
This is going to be a gaming computer and want it to be on the higher end of nice. I play a lot of FPS games, RTS games like: Men at War Assault Squad 2, Rome 2 Total War (I love the Total War series of games) and planning on getting 3 Kingdoms Total War when it comes out. I might try out Far Cry latest and greatest. So essentially I want to make sure all the games run smoothly with this setup. EDIT: I suppose I want it a similar build to what I have listed below, if not better. Better if at all possible.
Budget I haven't really decided yet as I forget how much I spent on my last build but it would be great to keep it at $1400 to $1600
I would like a nicer monitor but nothing too expensive but good for gaming. Something that is wide with great resolution that is good for gaming, especially for FPS games. I have a back up monitor I might use instead of getting a new one so I will leave the monitor out of the budget for now but would still like suggestions on those.
I have a keyboard and mouse already so that would leave the guts of the computer, a tower (which I believe I want to go with a full size tower, that is easy to clean)...
EDIT: Just found my old list of my last build. Those are old links below so I'm sure they don't work. I believe my video card is a 970 MSi, I will have to check on that.
