Approximate Purchase Date: within a week or two.
Budget Range: ideally $900 After Rebates, willing to go to about $1100 if it's needed for what I'm doing (I'll list that below)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Game Design (not sure what programs specifically, but currently maya, source SDK, torque game builder. In the near future, I'm going to be using more top end game design programs) and audio recording (mostly the programs reason rewire through nuendo, with video running with it.)
Parts Not Required: mouse, keyboard, monitor
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: newegg, open to whatever's cheapest.
Country of Origin: US
Parts Preferences: None really.
Overclocking: No
SLI or Crossfire: Is this needed?
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: For doing audio work, is it worth it to buy a sound card or will I be fine using the onboard that comes with my motherboard? Thanks.
