Building my first new PC in almost 10 years...it's time. These are some of my broad requirements:
High: roughly $2,130
Mid: roughly 1,712
Do I need the high end one or is the mid range plenty good enough? Any other thoughts are welcome. Thanks!
- Reliable. Nothing finicky.
- Games - All types
- Basic office productivity programs
- Semi-quiet
- 1440p or 1600p - Probably getting the Alienware 38inch 3840x1600 and will have standard 27 inch on the side/top
