Just to answer the req'd questions:
PLEASE when you POST threads asking for input on system builds tell us...
1. PC will be used for gaming and everyday use.
2. My budget is no more than $800
3. Parts will be bought from USA, mainly from newegg.com and amazon.com
4. No brand preference, I accept all.
5. I'll be reusing an old optical drive.
6. No
7. Good question, not really sure, most likely won't.
8. I own a Samsung T260HD
9. Planning to build in the next month or so.
Here is what I've compiled so far, hoping you all can dissect and let me know of compatibility issues or if I'm missing anything. Btw, I've got a $50 gift card to BBuy so I can use that for something on BB's website.
My planned configuration:
Thanks for the critique, again, I'm on a budget and hoping to get the best bang for the buck!
