    Hi boards, a friend of my recommended asking ye about getting a new pc build, I'm a bit of a gamer but also a multimedia student so i need this for a bit of work & play. Thanks in advance. :)

    1. What is your budget?
    [€800-1000]

    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer?
    [Gaming/3D Modelling/Internet]

    (skyrim, dishonored, planetside2, firefall) basically want the games to be able to run on high setting and be able to do some online gaming too

    also I'm going to use this with collage projects , I use UDK, 3ds Max, Maya, Mudbox, Unity. stuff like that.

    3. Do you need a copy of Windows? [No]

    4. Can you use any parts from an old computer? I have an old gaming rig but I'd like a fresh build as all the stuff in my current pc is at least 4-5 years old and can handle much these days .

    here are the specs

    not sure if i can use any of it


    5. Do you need a monitor? [No]

    5b. If no, what resolution is your current monitor and do you plan to upgrade in the near future? have a samsung 42" 1920x1080i which i'd use when gaming, but for working I'll probably use a HP L1908w 19" 1440x900

    6. Do you need any of these peripherals? [maybe a new keyboard}

    7. Are you willing to try overclocking? [No]

    8. How can you pay? [Credit Card/Laser]

    9. When are you purchasing? [In the next 14 days, but no rush]

    10. If you need help building it, where are you based? [have that sorted already]
