ya i checked

too many builds man... which of those is the best bang for my buck

are the dudes at ncix good at what they do? i don't want to get taken for a ride if i ask for other suggestions


how much are you looking to spend?
I just bought some parts for my bro to upgrade his computer

e: and I'd recommand directcanada

free and fast shipping
only 5% tax
and the best price, it even beat newegg by a few dollars on each item

you could save on;
downgrading the motherboard a bit
8-12 gb instead of 16 gb ram
do you need 2tb HD?
power supply(you would need to make sure you don't need 750) I think you could use a 650 but thats my opinion..or even less
and I forgot some 20$ dvd writer, but who use that anyway?

and upgrade video card/case/etc or buy a monitor :P

this is giving you a general idea of what you can get

I went with AMD over intel because intel is overrated as fuck, go with it if you have the budget
BUT if you plan to play huge game with it(the amd cpu), get an aftermarket cooling fan because you will be able to cook an egg on your cpu

AMD is fine, not as good as intel but still very buyable

ok

and 8 gb is fine eh?

windows 8 or 7?

someone in my thread recommended this:

http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/w6sdf7

what do you think?

also what about just buying something like this:

http://www.costco.ca/.product.100126695.html?cm_sp=RichRelevance-_-itempageVerticalRight-_-MultiItemViewCP&cm_vc=itempageVerticalRight|MultiItemViewCP

and then upgrading the video card + PSU + monitor myself?

is that reasonable?
