First post
So let me first give you my situation. I'm a sophomore in college, I worked for local 3 in NYC this past summer. Made a good amount of money, spent most of it, saved enough.
So lets give it the rundown.
Budget: I have $900 to spend. I also can have my parents buy me 1 component, probably the graphics card for my birthday (NOV 6th).
So: $900 to spend on everything else, and lets say $500 or less for the graphics card.
Experience: I have 0 experience at building a computer, but I have friends that do, so putting it together shouldn't be a problem. The main problem is selecting the parts to use. I am going to overclock the system.
So basically i need some help selecting the right parts, that fit my budget, and will give me the best system. Any tips, and tricks would also be appreciated.
