So I've decided to build my PC this year seeing my old 1 has kicked the bucket which was built 4 years ago (that's a long time...i know ). I'm getting help to buy the stuff from my parents as I'm not working at the moment but attending uni.
Budget: None right now, bear in mind though US$1=TT$6.40 (average).
Target: Building a system, cheap as possible, to run at least CoD4 MW2 at medium/full GFX. (Crossfire isn't necessary since I don't think I would be using it. Just picked a Crossfire ready card, in case I upgrade in the future.)
Parts not listed (already got from previous build).
Plan: Not sure if I would buy online (it costs cheaper but got no credit card right now, don't want to burn out the parent's money lol), so I'll be looking for these parts locally (hence I did not include rebates or any other discount in prices). If I do not find exact parts locally, I'll put together something as close as possible.
