Gaming Rig for $2300

[MandyBoy]

Approximate Purchase Date: June, 2013

Budget Range: Not beyond $2300

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Surfing Web, Watching movie

Are you buying a monitor: Yes (A 120 Hz- 2 ms one)



Parts to Upgrade: everything but speakers

Do you need to buy OS: Yes


Preferred Website(s) for Parts: whichever is reliable and customer-friendly(I reckon, every site is; so whichever offers the lowest price)

Location: Kolkata, India

Parts Preferences: I'm an Intel-fanboy as far as the CPU is concerned

Overclocking: Yes

SLI or Crossfire: Sometimes after 2 to 3 years

Your Monitor Resolution: 1920*1080 or 1920*1200

Additional Comments: Though I'm kinda newbie, I wanna try custom loop water cooling(Maybe XSPC or Swiftech). I want a super-quiet kickass looking single monitor rig. Though I know, it's really a time of eternity, but can this rig run games at max settings for 5 years(Keep in mind, I'm adding a GPU in 2-3 years)..

One more question, for this budget, can I get a GPU waterblock and a memory waterblock???

Please help me out!



Don't...

For 120hz 8ms respond time is enough. But make sure it is there.

For your budget it is waste if you get 1080p or less. go for 1920x1200
