I am looking for a build that is under 1100 not including a graphics card. I odn't need an OS, monitor, graphics card, keyboard, or mouse. I need 8 gigs of ram and extra power for oc. Thanks! This is rendering/gaming build.
 
What graphics card do you have?

Please help us help you better. I took the liberty of asking pretty much any question that I could come up with for assisting with a build. If there are any questions that I might have missed, please feel free to let me know so I can add them to my list. By answering this list I hope to help cut down on builds and/or components that do not cater to you. And hopefully aid you in getting better answers to your question quicker. And thank you for providing any of the answers to these questions already.

1. Do you need a keyboard?

2. Do you need a mouse?

3. Do you need a monitor? (If you already have a monitor/tv, what type is it and how many hz is it?

4. Do you want a blu-ray drive, dvd/cd drive, or no drive?

5. Do you prefer Intel or AMD processors?

6. Do you want to be able to overclock the processor?

7. Do you prefer NVidia or AMD graphics cards? (NVidia cards are a bit more expensive for a similar frames-per-second, but you also get PhysX if you care about that)

8. Do you plan on overclocking the graphics card?

9. Do you want to have more options for upgrading later on, such as adding extra RAM or running multiple graphics cards together?

10. What operating system do you prefer, Windows 7 or 8.1, or Ubuntu/Linux?

11. Does your budget include the operating system?

12. Do you prefer air cooling or liquid cooling?

13. Is there a particular case size you would like to go for, mid tower, full tower, etc?

14. Is there a particular theme or color scheme that you prefer, or a particular style case? (Please give a few examples)

15. What is your budget, minimum and maximum costs?

16. What sort of games or programs do you want to use? (Please give plenty of examples)

17. What settings, fps, resolution do you want to play those games at?

18. What country do you live in, so we can know what currency and/or sites to link for you?
 

Please read the post before wasting your own time.
 


I sure did waste my time. The last line in that paragraph states, "And thank you for providing any of the answers to these questions already." That is because you already left some information. However it is easier when going through a build checklist for me and others feel the same way, to have set questions that I can check off as I ensure it conforms to exactly what you want.

You might think it is stupid, but seriously...knowing thing like the specific graphics card helps figure out a power supply that will work better with it in case it needs additional power connections from the power supply itself. And if it is a NVidia or AMD GPU, then there is a possibility of going with a motherboard that supports SLI or Crossfire so you can run two GPUs together for better performance in multi-screen applications or applications that benefit from it.

The operating system being Windows 7, 32 bit or 64 bit matters because that impacts the amount of RAM that it will support. In Windows 8.1 that does not matter as much. However in Windows 64 bit many applications will run better and receive better versions such as Java 32 bit vs Java 64 bit.

Some people actually change their mind or have preferences, or even accidentally forget that they don't have a keyboard or do need something else. So questions are important for double checking, rather than helping someone make a build and then they say the build is just to expensive because their budget it different or they need something else.

I make sure to read the entire post and I am sorry for trying to clarify everything to help you better. I hope that someone will assist you with this.
