It's been a long time since I've updated my computer. I will have to trust your recommendations - particularly regarding GPU, CPU, and MoBo.
This computer will be used for sim racing only, in 1920x1080.
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Gaming only.
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$1200 before tax and shipping. Including OS.
3) Where do you live?
NV.
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.
Need: CPU, RAM, GPU, Motherboard, PSU, HDD (SSD is possible)
Have: Case, connectors, cables, optical drive.
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Case is ATX from Antec. Believe it's an old 180 series.
6) Will you be overclocking?
No.
7) What size monitor do you have and/or plan to have?
1080P plasma TV.
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Now.
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video? etc.
None of these are relevant to me; this will be dedicated to gaming and that only. Crossfire & SLi are not my cup of tea.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
Not yet. Will buy Win7. Not sure whether to get 64bit or 32bit. Any recommendations?
