So I went on Newegg and clicked things until I had this clusterforget of parts

[kevin 51l]

=
$665.64

(picture because nobody wants to click on 20000 links)

i basically clicked on what i thought was good. not a computer hardware expert, but i've been given tips.

anywhere i can downgrade/upgrade?
also im going to need a good at least 18 inch monitor for about 70 dollars

what i'm planning on doing with it:
minecraft - far distance fancy graphics 30fps
modern games (as in l4d2, magicka, BFBC2, killing floor, amnesia, maybe GTAIV, etc.) - low to mid graphics with good fps

i don't know how much to go up to. i'm planning on building this (OR STARING AT IT BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO) and getting it for my birthday

hope some deals will last until whenever my parents can say no buy this

I <3 you for only getting a 500gb HDD. Um, yeah I don't really know if all those things work with each other, there can be weird bugs and stuff causing MOBOs to not work with cards they should, so do some research.

But yeah, you are awsome for not getting loving 2TB HDD LO!L.

i hope you realize your cpu isn't compatible with your mobo.

No seriously, how do you guys afford your computers?

[captain blue]

i recommend making an investment into crazy glue to put it all together


(protip: the glitter makes ur mobo run 1.4 ghz faster)

My mom gave me a 2000$ budget and I bought a bunch of awesome stuff.

The only thing I'll have to replace soon will maybe be the video card and the mobo. But even that will cost less then 500$ C:

duct tape solves everything!


you could have just asked us to build it for you, lol.

My mom never really gives me a budget and says "have fun."  She just buys me stuff part by part.

I would have picked a 300$ i7 for him because I love processors.

And then jew'd out on everything else. Better to have a weaker processor and make it proportionate with the whole rig than bottleneck it with a stuffty GPU
