Keyboard/Mouse/Speakers (31.99): http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/Sea...74&sku=D15-1044 Hey, it seems good =) Monitor (268.00): http://canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=Sh...8406&cid=MT.899 Is that response time okay? Overall price:$1773.17/1500.00 Approx $250 over budget, can anyone find me cheaper parts, without scaraficing too much quality?
do you have a problem with newegg.com? I think you can find the same parts if not better there for cheaper... I have a build that is about 1200 that outmatches that... im sure deluzion could build you a REALLY nice computer build for $1500 (ive seen his $800-$1000 builds and for the price they are phoenominal) though his builds typically do not include a monitor/OS
I like those sites, I just need good yet cheap parts. Master? .DeFuZiOn? Where are ya when I need ya?
Dont get that case. cheap case with a cheap psu. The motherboard is a waste you dont need sli. I will configure you a better one tomorrow but I have to sleep now so I will sort you out in the morning.
^I'd reccomend anything DeFuZioN says. But in my own opinion, I'd lower the CPU to a 3800+ X2 and up your graphics card. There's not enough difference to justify the price, and a good graphics card is more important in today's games than a extreme processor.
I won't be gaming enough, so my video card can wait. I need a case with at least 450 watt PSU, otherwise, I void my motherboards warranty. I'll lower the motherboard, don't want SLi all that much. Anyhow, any reccomendations to lower the price?
if you need/want, save 75 bucks, and get a 3800x2 and just OC it 10% like I did.. (thats the same as a 4200+x2 and obviously, you wont have very good speakers, mouse or keyboard, but thats decent for being so cheap.
Don't get PSUs that come with cases. They are almost always low quality, and you run the risk of them blowing and taking out other components. I'd reccomend a Fortron PSU.
Ok get these - PSU - http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/Sea...1565893&CatId=0 Downgrade CPU to this - http://canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=Sh...675&cid=CPU.611 Downgrade motherboard to this - http://canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=Sh...9329&cid=MB.693 Then choose a random case.
i agree with the above poster ^^ EDIT: Cept for the case the p180 or something is such a sweet case....check maximumpc.com or something from that mag...they have it in there and it is sweet
