My call load has been reduced tenfold and the answers I need to supply by more than that.
I can simply steer them to a Dell website, tell them the very simply answer or ask her to call in to Tech support. You do not have that option when you are the sole support.
I do not want to have to...
No one is questioning that you can build a better performing pc via the roll your own route.
There are people saying it is insane to build out a custom rig based upon future upgradability for your parents. I know as I have done just that in the past. It is silly, a huge time waster and the...
I am with the Del Outlet group here.
I generally abhor buying pre-built but it is not worth the constant tech support you will need to provide to build anything custom for most people over the age of 40/50. (i am just under 40!)
Go with a very basic Dell box that has very few...
I'd never go below 50 bucks on a PSU.
The less money you have to spend the less risk you want to endure with a cheaper PSU.
500 is really a price point for a web surfing pc that can play some games as opposed to a gaming machine which is why suggesting land to the high side.
You want...
Your build is very similar to what I have and I love it. (That case is a monster but it's awesome).
All that said, by Fall I am sure I'd make different choices.
You seem to be quite sharp for a to be College Student so best of luck.
Your plan is an excellent one IMHO.
Nothing of value to add to the always excellent suggestions provided here so just want to offer an overall congrats!
A quality gaming rig will cost you about 850. Cut some corners, find a sale or two and 750 is doable.
What you did was create a thread that refused to follow the basic stickied guildline to provide info that will allow others to fully help you, refused to accept work-arounds like rebates to...
Why would you decide that?
Not sure why you are posting here if someone basically tells you the parts you chose are the very worst ones but you go for it anyway with no real reason to do so.
Nothing at all wrong with doing your own thing with your own money but why waste people's time...
You don't heal as shadow any longer.
That is just goofy. Dual talent trees are available and very cheap now. You either have a second heal spec or you check the dps box. Making people wait for a queue and then they get some schmo who thinks he can heal as a shadow priest is wrong enough that...
i'd forget building out nearly identical systems.
the casual gamer should be a bit beefier.
basic home pc is very light on requirements.
anything you get now will fly compared to a 7 year old system.. much less compared to 10.
look at the 400 dollar and 800 dollar builds from mnewsham...
I'd get the coolermaster psu of those options.
I had bad experiences with Antec psu's so generally only use corsair or seasonic now.
Rebates are generally crappy and slow in coming. The check you may get 2/3 months from now isn't probably going to be a make or break thing.
Rebates...
see stickies at top of the forum and fill out the form for best results and help.
or look at the dozens of other threads like this one exactly.
that is a very solid budget for a high performance gaming pc... although that may vary if you are really canadian....
