Hey all, I'm looking for advice and possibly tips and answers on whether or not my current build will work. I've done some scouting through Newegg, and looking at advice tips through the net on how to build a gaming rig and looking at pricings and what to look for, but I want to make sure it'll work (most of all), and whether or not this is a good buy for 1k spending limit. It's currently priced at around 980$, but with rebates and such (I don't know if wishlist accounts for rebates and things like that) it could be around 860 altogether.
After reading the how to post new building threads I've decided to add in this info:
I have no bought any items yet. I live in Georgia US. I'm using this computer mainly for gaming. I only have a laptop at the moment and most likely won't be using any parts from it for my new computer. I'm looking to keep this rig under 1,000 dollars and do not have a monitor, keyboard, mouse, or operating system yet. But I'm currently looking operating systems at the moment and monitors. I doubt a keyboard and mouse will be that bad for cheapo's until I get more money. And I don't know if I will need any after market cooling as I'm pretty noob/new to a lot of this stuff .
Sidenote:
I've been told I could scrap my optical drive for a higher priced Graphics card, but I heard the 7850 was a decent buy for it's price. I'll see what you guys have to say, but I would like to be able to watch dvd's and such, and install some of the CD'd PC games I already currently own.
Thanks!
