>**What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.**
My PC's abysmal performance in Dying Light (20-40 fps) is what has prompted me to upgrade. Battlefield 4, Nosgoth, and FIFA 15 are the other games I will be playing. I also may try to broadcast live gameplay on Twitch in any of these games.
I do not keep up to date with upcoming games or new generations of GPUs, etc... I would like to be able to play Dying Light now (it is not worth playing with my current FPS) but if the next big thing in GPUs or a huge price break is right around the corner, I can wait.
>**What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?**
This depends on which components I need to upgrade. I would prefer not to replace everything. If I am replacing only the GPU or only the CPU, I would like to be under $300. I am open to opinions on whether to wait or jump on a nice, current deal.
>**If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.**
