Alright, I started off thinking about building a $600-800 gaming PC, but then I noticed that everything was so expensive & I want to have this PC for 5+ years.
So, I've decided to go all out & my budget is ~$1,400-1,800 for the PC & then about $300-450(up to $650 b\c of expensive keyboards) for the keyboard, mouse, monitors, ect.
First off is the case. It's a full tower made by Antec & it comes with 6 LED fans & it looks like it has plenty of room.
Case: Antec Twelve Hundred V3 Black Steel ATX Full Tower Unbeatable Gaming Case
I guess the next is the motherboard. I don't really know what to look for in the motherboard, so anybody offering any help is more than welcome. I'm going with an Intel motherboard.
Motherboard: MSI Z77A-G43 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
The processor is an Intel i5 3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4Ghz(3.8Ghz) 1155. I think I'm good with this. If you recommend me downgrading it, I'm just going to get this b\c I'd rather be safe than sorry.
Processor: Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 BX80637I53570K
For the SSD, I'm going with a Samsung 2.5% 256GB Sata 3. I think that this is good enough b\c some people recommended the 128GB to me, but I decided to go with the 256GB.
SSD: SAMSUNG 830 Series MZ-7PC256B/WW 2.5" 256GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
For the ram, I think I'm going with the 16GB Corsair DDR3 1600 b\c again, I'd rather be safe with getting the 16GB over the 12GB.
RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Desktop Memory Model CMZ16GX3M2A1600C10R
For the GPU, I have NO clue what to look for other than the "GTX 570" thing haha, all opinions will be put into consideration for this.
GPU: EVGA SuperClocked 012-P3-1573-KR GeForce GTX 570 HD w/Display-Port (Fermi) 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP ...
For the power supply, I'm going with a 800W Rosewill lightning power supply with all of the LEDs & everything. =]]]]]
Power Supply: Rosewill LIGHTNING Series LIGHTNING-800 800W ATX12V/EPS12V 80 PLUS GOLD Certified Modular Active-PFC Power Supply
For the monitors, I'm going with two Hanns-G monitors, one 26" 5ms widescreen & one 23.6" 5ms widescreen
Monitors: Hanns-G HL269DPB Black 26" 5ms Widescreen LED-Backlit LCD Monitor
&
Hanns-G HL248DPB Black 23.6" 5ms Widescreen LED-Backlit LCD Monitor
For the mouse, I'm just getting a Razer DeathAdder mouse, but I might get a newer one, but it has to be blue =]]]]]]]
Mouse: RAZER DeathAdder Black 5 Buttons 1 x Wheel USB Wired Precision Optical Gaming Mouse - 3.5G Infrared Sensor
Again, feel free to comment any opinions & all help is put into consideration. =]
