Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: before August
Budget Range: 1000$ USD could possibly squeeze a few hundred more out but it'd have to really be worth it, and not over 1300$ shipped please.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: I sometimes play World of Warcraft and would like if I could turn the settings off minimum. but really I just use it for general computer purposes, sometimes school work. My GF is a gamer and has a much nicer computer than I do, so I figured I have a little extra in the the budget.
Are you buying a monitor: No
( I have one but if there is space, and the new system could run two monitors. it'd be nice. but there probably wont be, and don't worry about it )
Parts to Upgrade: Last computer bought almost a decade ago, I don't think anything is salvageable.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
I guess I should.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: tigerdirect, newegg, open to other sites as long as they're reputable
Location: Detroit, MI, USA.
Parts Preferences: I'd prefer Intel because I know they have the better processor but if my budget only permits AMD and the performance will match Intels then by all means.
Overclocking: no
SLI or Crossfire: uneducated as to what either are
Your Monitor Resolution: doesn't matter.
Additional Comments: I'd like to invest enough in this PC so I wont have to worry about upgrading for (hopefully another decade) but realistically a few years while also saving where possible.
Oh I was told I need a SSD.
I might be able to get by without a OS, but would still prefer one in box as I haven't had one in a while.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: The last time I bought a PC was in 2004 I believe and it's just time.
