Let me just say that when i stumbled onto this website the first thing i noticed was how helpful the community seems to be and thats why i decided to post a thread. I know very little about building a custom computer now a days. It seems that more and more stuff is emerging from the electronics world and Im completely baffled when trying to piece things together, especially making sure everything is compatible and making sure i have enough watts.
What im looking for is some to put together a gaming build for me. I play mostly fps- bouncing from cs and competitive cod. Right now im playing those games on a macbook pro - ftw right? (eh not quite) I obviously run into the announce of having the fans run constant and loudly. im just waiting for this thing to over heat. With a game like cod where the framerate is a weee bit important and you get drops like a genie pig trying to swim.
basicly im looking for the best gaming build i can get for well 1200 would be nice but under 1500 i can due. i know there can be a lot more advantage putting that extra 300 or so in.
other thoughts- i7? amd?
not sure whats better for gaming but im sure everyone else does. also pretty sure there is no specific one thats better for gaming but when amds first came out there were the shiz.
i also read this stickies 😀
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: (this summer) BUDGET RANGE: ( >1500)
SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: (gaming)
PARTS NOT REQUIRED: (eyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers, OS)
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: this does not matter to me as long as i can order the parts really. only place i really know about is newegg.
PARTS PREFERENCES: what ever fits and is reliable in my budget not sure who is name brand
OVERCLOCKING: sure
SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Yes
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: i wrote a lot above i know that ill be checking the thread throughout the day, i dont have much to do today- just got the wisdom teeh out (I would like a quiet PC that doesnt overheat can pwn faces, i will be gaming for long periods of time)
if any more input is needed from me let me know
im really just looking for a build and to join in the community to help out where i can.
