1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Mostly Graphic Design work with multiple programs being used at once PS 5, AI, Rip software for Wideformat printers. Plus some gaming and ripping my dvds, blu ray when I get a chance
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
Approx. 2,000 give or take a couple of hundred. Price excludes new monitor
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
U.S. in SC no nearby computer stores
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
Case, Power Supply, Ram, Cpu, Motherboard, Heatsink, Video card, Blu ray drive, SSD, OS
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
I will reuse my current 2 24" asus Monitors.
6) Will you be overclocking?
Yes
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
I currently have 2 Asus 24" monitors Res 1920X1080p . I will be picking up third monitor thinking about the high res 27" Asus coming out (PB278Q is a 2560 by 1440)
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Within the next 2 weeks
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.
Not really sure, I know I need to be able to move large files for work some close to a gig in size.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
No
Here is what I have been thinking so far:
Case Silverstone FT03
CPU i7-3770K
RAM G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB
Video Card EVGA SuperClocked 02G-P4-3662-KR GeForce GTX 660 Ti
Motherboard ASUS Maximus V Gene LGA 1155 Intel Z77
Heatsink CORSAIR H80
Hard drive Crucial M4 CT512M4SSD2 2.5" 512GB SATA III
This is the 3rd monitor I was looking at (not part of the above budget)
Thanks in advance for all your time and help!
