1. What YOUR PC will be used for. That means what types of tasks you'll be performing.
I will mostly be using the computer for gaming, I play Wow, SC2, and occasionally new FPS or RTS games.
2. What YOUR budget is. A price range is acceptable as long as it's not more than a 20% spread
Between $1,500 to $2,000 is the maximum budget.
3. What country YOU will be buying YOUR parts from.
United States
4. IF YOU have a brand preference. That means, are you an Intel-Fanboy, AMD-Fanboy, ATI-Fanboy, nVidia-Fanboy, Seagate-Fanboy, WD-Fanboy, etc.
I have switched to basically whatever is going to get me the most performance/price.
5. If YOU intend on using any of YOUR current parts, and if so, what those parts are.
I will be using keeping my 3007 Dell monitor, my sound card, and most likely my BFG 850w PS (AFAIK). I also have an Antec 900 case that might be kept, but I might want a bigger case that is easier to install and remove parts if something happens. Also have 1TB HDD that I would use with a new SSD (would like to have enough space for my Win7 and the main games I play).
6. IF YOU have searched and/or read similar threads.
I have looked around at many different sites and tried to figure out what to do, but nothing really seemed to be what I was looking for in a build.
7. IF YOU plan on overclocking or run the system at default speeds.
Either would be fine with me, although I have not really done a lot of overclocking.
8. What resolution YOU plan on gaming with.
Native 3007 resolution is 2560x1600 so I am planning on using it for most of the time.
9. WHEN do you plan to build it?
Trying to wait until the 3rd generation SSDs, Sandy Bridge, and AMD 6xxx GPU series comes out, but if the deals are nice I could stop the waiting game.
Any help would be appreciated, just cannot decide on what I should get and thought others could give me some ideas.
