Approximate Purchase Date: Late May/Early June
Budget Range: Idealistically as low as possible. Realistically lets ballpark it around 900 before rebates not including the case
System Usage: Photo editing, Graphic design, Video editing and rendering, and should be able to handle the occasional gaming session with no problems at decent settings
Parts Not Required: Keyboard, Mouse, Monitor, Speakers, Storage (Have a spare 1TB HDD I'm going to format. However I wouldn't be opposed to putting an SSD in it if its in the price range.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: no preference
Country: USA
Parts Preferences: Intel CPU and AsRock MoBo are the only two requirements I really have
Overclocking: Not a necessity but want the option to. will upgrade CPU down the line for it if needed but system has to be compatible.
SLI or Crossfire: only using one card right now but will probably upgrade down the line so i want the option to.
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: Right now I'm looking to build using the BitFenix Shinobi XL Window (White) ATX Full Tower Case, with the price of the case not included in the purchase. Built my first rig (Build for gaming) last year and its still going strong, so I'm comfortable with building my own rig. But this computer isn't going to be in my primary place of residence so I'll still be using that aswell.
