Good points for me to consider. Thanks for the help.

Maybe a little more expensive than what I originally anticipated, but even though minecraft seems to be their primary game I want to have a little wiggle room to allow it to play some other games as well when a time comes. I've been looking at this one but am still in research mode...

I figured best buy since it's close by and has a couple locations.

I've always built our own gaming PCs, but I need help picking a laptop with specs that will not break the bank and allow for dual use. I built my 8 and 9 year olds decent, mild gaming PCs, but for Christmas '15 I want to get them both laptops. It will be for general computer usage, homework at...

I've made my decision, and am happy with it. I've always envisioned 3 monitors but after the last few weeks of studying this, and then looking at what it would cost me to do it the way I want and what I would get back over all from it I decided against 3 screens and went with the Dell U3415W 34"...

Took a ride to MicroCenter during lunch to stand in front of a 34 inch curved monitor. No doubt about it, the look is sweet. I would be more than content with that for absolutely any use, from any type of work or gaming. My biggest hangup is for years I've envisioned a 3 screen setup for sim...

So, I've spent the better part of the day reading reviews, and technical articles about 3 screens and 21:9 monitor reviews and I come away thinking, I'm going to bed uncertain and confused. I love the aspect of being surrounded by screens in a cockpit feel for racing sims and flying sims but...

The video card is showing 3 display ports.

Starting to think going 3 screens that use G-SYNC may be more than I want to spend. Probably look for something that is a quality gaming 27 inch monitor and get 3 of those. If G-SYNC ever gets less expensive I can always get them, then and give my kids a monitor upgrade for their PCs.

I'm looking to create a 3-monitor setup, and they will be connecting to an EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB Superclocked+ ACX 2.0+ Video Card. I'm open to suggestions and recommendations on what I need to keep an eye out for, or monitors in general as I start getting deeper into research. I want...

Think Im staying with the HSF. It's the last item on my list to order.

What do you think of the 1tb ssd for main drive and 250gb ssd for swap file? Not what I was intending but read on another forum that this was a thing. It's not what I intend to do but I am always interested in different configurations.

These were the SSD drives I wanted. So I'm ok with them. I'm just keeping the thread updated. I had a loose budget, I'm not trying to get it lower. I guess my absolute dead stop on price is 1999.99. Appreciate everyone's feedback. This has been fun. Pity I only do it once in a while. ;-)

These are my very first SSD purchases. You see, there was a sale, and the rest is history.

Greetings all, here is where my current build stands so far. its a holiday weekend here in the states so I held off on all purchases till i get back home from holiday. I did have a few items below already purchased from sales, researching, and plenty of recommendations to filter through...
