    Hey Guys,

    I'm new to the Forums and am looking for a few different gaming builds to have a look at :P. I am a game development student and have 800-1000 to spend on a computer. (I just bought a 28 inch monitor so that can be excluded from the build).

    I want a powerful PC that can handle the latest games and software for content creation. These are the only things I really need the build for so sorry for the lack of Information here guys.

    Dunno why you're hijacking this thread but anyway the build is good. I'd only change that monitor to this one.

    Ips monitors have superior picture quality over TN ones and it's only a little more.
