Hello, this is my first time on these forums but everyone seems to know their stuff so I thought it would be a great place to ask about my dilemma.
First off my budget is around 900-1200$ and this is my first gaming PC purchase ever and would just like to set my computer to be able to last up to 4-5 years.
This computer is going to be mostly for gaming and maybe a little bit of programming along with normal-use functions like the internet and school work. With so many different opinions and reviews between parts and cpu builds it is just overwhelming me and I have YET to purchase any computer. (Still playing this crap laptop in frustration in each game I play while I try and figure out what to purchase)
I have come up with 2 different builds on eBay, not saying I will purchase from them yet, because I am not sure if it is the best place to buy,(would appreciate opinions on that is well) but they do have good warranties. Please determine which build is better overall and what things, if any, would you add/subtract or degrade/upgrade to get your best overall performance for the next 3-5 years in gaming and such.
Current games: Counter Strike GO 1.6, League of Legends, Starcraft 2, Diablo 3, Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone, World of Warcraft, Minecraft, Age of Empires 2, DayZ, and BF4/Titanfall with new computer.
