So it's been a few years and now its time to upgrade to something better than my old grandpa system (It's SCARY"... you don't even wanna know)
My budget is "really" tight... I really need to keep the whole deal including taxes and shipping at $600 or less...
I used to know all the ins and outs back in "the day" lol... but its been awhile and I'm hoping that all you nice knowledgeable folks will help an old geezer out.
This system will be used mostly for gaming... I know I can't expect too much for $600 but I really want to maximize what I'm getting for my money... this needs to be the screamin eagle of $600 systems.... I need a "Full" system including anything I might need for assembly like thermal compound or whatever... so... here it is
Approximate Purchase Date: this week
Budget Range: 600 Before Rebates
System Usage from Most to Least Important: gaming, surfing the internet, watching movies
Parts Not Required: keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers
