Going for a new build here guys- my friend likes my last build ( 2500K ) but may not have the cash to get an Intel CPU.
This is what I have in my cart at New Egg. Please suggest any changes/additions. I do not have any name brand preferences nor am I fan-boy of either Intel/AMD, or Nvidia/Radeon. Still too much $$ for him as it is - but I don't know where I can cut without it loosing quality/speed/etc.
Does not need mouse, monitor, keyboard,etc.
Must play BF3, Skyrim, etc. on a 26 inch HD monitor at 1080p (high settings- does not need ultra settings)
