Approximate Purchase Date: As soon as possible, but realistically within two months considering the amount of parts.
Budget Range: Up to 2500 EUR before shipping and before rebates.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: #1: Gaming, #2: watching videos, #3: VR gaming (potentially), #4: word processing and surfing the internet etc.
Parts Not Required: I do not require a new keyboard, mouse, speakers, monitors (I have 2) or HDDs (I have 2 installed at the moment).
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: no preferred website.
Country: Belgium
Parts Preferences:
Storage: 1 SSD 500GB.
Case: At least a mid-tower case that has room for 1 SSD, and at least 2 HDDs.
GPU: an nVidia graphics card
Memory: 16 GB GB should suffice for the time being, but I will want to add more in the years to come.
Overclocking: Maybe, I’d like the option, but considering I haven’t overclocked parts before, I’d prefer to get really good gear that doesn’t need to be overclocked anytime soon to get great performance.
SLI or Crossfire: Yes, but I’ll buy the second card a year or two from now to spread the cost.
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: I am planning to put this computer together myself. I’d prefer to not go through the hassle of getting an after-market CPU cooler, but in the interests of potential overclocking, it’s probably unavoidable, so please add your recommendation.
Thanks for the help, everyone!
