Hi there,
This will be my first computer build. I am looking to make a gaming computer within a 1500 dollar (Canadian) budget. Some games that I am looking to play are SC2 at ultra settings, battlefield three at near top settings. Take a look at the components I have so far and comment and recommend other products.
