Another Desktop Build Thread
I didn't want to add on to another thread since I have a bit different requirements. I'm pretty new to this stuff so please bear with me.
I'm looking to build a daily use desktop mainly for browsing, newsgroups/usenet, streaming HD video, ability to hook up to my tv via hdmi, and casual gaming. For gaming, I just want something that will allow me to play newer games at medium settings. I would also like to not require any upgrades for about two years.
Please take a look at my configurator from ME and let me know where I can cut and what I need to upgrade. And let me know if I need anything else, like heatsinks, coolers, network cards, sound cards, adapter cards etc. If possible, I'd like to get this to around $800 - $1000. Thanks.
