It's been a while since I built a PC and I would like to get back on it. It's more of a hobby, but also I want to make something not too expensive, and at the same time, not too outdated. I dont play games, but I think it will be nice to have something available if I ever do get in to games.
I want something kind of fast, snappy, and just all around a solid PC.
Last time, I built a PC, it kept shutting it self down due to overheating, and I had to buy various fans, and also had to leave the case open. I also had power supplies problem and had to replace it multiple times.
1. What YOUR PC will be used for. That means what types of tasks you'll be performing.
Internet. Word documents.
2. What YOUR budget is. A price range is acceptable as long as it's not more than a 20% spread
$400 to $500. Or less if can be done.
3. What country YOU will be buying YOUR parts from.
I live in the U.S, so probably U.S
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.
No preference. Just the most cost effective.
5. If YOU intend on using any of YOUR current parts, and if so, what those parts are.
Acer LCD monitor. ATI Radeon 4350
6. IF YOU have searched and/or read similar threads.
yes.
7. IF YOU plan on overclocking or run the system at default speeds.
no.
8. What resolution YOU plan on gaming with.
no gaming. If games, just facebook games.
9. WHEN do you plan to build it?
within the next 2 months.
