Hey this is my first time building a computer and i was looking to build an up to date gaming computer a few games that id like to be able to run on it mechwarrior online guild wars two command and conquer starcraft 2 diable 3 crysis max settings if possible my budget is a little over $1000 id like to know parts prices websites that have good prices and how to install it
I guess it depends on where you live as far as the places to buy the parts at.Are you in the UK or what.
I live in the washington dc area in the united states and i kinda figured buying them online would be cheaper then going to a computer store
ive heard lots of good stuff about newegg but i wasn't sure if there was a better website to buy computer parts from so i figured i would ask
Newegg and Tigerdirect have some good deals. I don't know if they have a Compusa in the D.C area but they are owned by Tigerdirect.There is also a Fry's that's has a lot of good deals. http://www.frys.com/ http://www.tigerdirect.com/ http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicat...CatId=114&cm_sp=Masthead-_-Computers-_-Spot 7
ok so i spent some time looking around mostly on tiger direct and heres a list of stuff i think will work together and fulfill what im looking for but im hoping you guys can look this over and give me some advice let me know if some components wont work together or if its not going to be able to run what i want it to run Case Cooler Master HAF X Full Tower Case Mobo ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard CPU Intel Core i7-2600 BX80623I72600 Processor - Quad Core, 8MB L3 Cache, 1MB L2 Cache, 3.40 GHz (3.80 GHz Max Turbo), Socket H2 (LGA1155), 95W, Fan, Retail Ram Corsair Vengeance CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B Desktop Memory Kit - 8GB (2x 4GB), PC3-12800, DDR3-1600MHz, 9-9-9-24 CAS Latency, Intel XMP Ready, Unbuffered PSU Ultra LSP650 650-Watt Power Supply - ATX, SATA-Ready, SLI-Ready, 135mm Fan, Lifetime Warranty w/ Registration SSD OCZ VTX3-25SAT3-120G Vertex 3 Solid State Drive - 120GB, 2.5", SATA III HD Seagate ST1000DM003 Barracuda 1TB Hard Drive - 7200RPM, 64MB, SATA 6Gb/s GPU/Graphics Card SAPPHIRE 11188-22-20G Radeon HD 6950 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card (OC Edition) (edit a friend suggested a different graphics card and realized the mobo and cpu werent compatible so changed to a compatible mobo) Sorry that i couldnt link these to the pages Thanks for the input
