Hello, long time no see,
Some of the older guys may remember me from back in '07, maybe as my old pseudonym: Firsttimebuilder . I haven't posted in a very long time. Over the years I've gamed less and less, started and finished high school and finished my first year of university, all with my faithful Q6600 rig I built with the help of this forum way back then. I've upgraded along the way, but have finally decided I need a new rig, not for gaming but just as a product that -- no matter how much you reformat -- stability tends to worsen over the years.
Anway here's the plan
Fractal Design Core 1000
ASUS H87M-PRO
Intel Core i5-4670
SAMSUNG 840 EVO
CORSAIR Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB)
SeaSonic SSR-360GP 360W
(No video card *gasp*)
I`m going to reuse:
Wifi adapter
dvd drive
maybe HDD's, but I don't plan on using a lot of space'
Also, in terms of text-readability/eyestrain and office-y stuff, how much have LCD's improved over the last 5 years? I currently have a BenQ FP202.
