My friend is looking for a super dirt cheap build to play pretty much 3 games:
League of Legends (main one)
Starcraft 2 (secondary)
Guild Wars 2 (occasionally)
He already has a 1080p monitor, keyb, mouse, windows 8, doesn't need cd drive. Doesn't care to play in extreme settings just wants it playable at 1080p with no slowdown while looking decent.
1. What YOUR PC will be used for. That means what types of tasks you'll be performing.
Gaming 3 specific games
2. What YOUR budget is. A price range is acceptable as long as it's not more than a 20% spread
As cheap as one can possibly get it to be
3. What country YOU will be buying YOUR parts from.
USA
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 fanboy-ism
5. If YOU intend on using any of YOUR current parts, and if so, what those parts are.
1080p monitor
keyboard
mouse
windows
doesn't want cd drive
*
7. IF YOU plan on overclocking or run the system at default speeds.
Whatever is cheapest
8. What resolution will you be using?
1080p
9. WHEN do you plan to build it?
ASAP
He also wants an SSD (128gb or so)
