Hello everyone
names Jay, and Im from Canada. I'm new to this and to computers, I'm interested in building a multi media/gaming PC on the lower side of a $1000ish. Im also interested in forward compatibility so i don't need to rebuild after a year or two. If i could get some advice on what to start with that would be great!So far this is what i have come up with:-asus z77 sabertooth mobo lga1155,-cooler max haf 912 case,-Intel i5 ivybridge*-corsair vengeance 8gb ram (2x4gb),-corsair 750w modular power supply*,-ASUS or MSI geforce 660 (probably SLI a second one in the future),-seagate barracuda 1 tb hdd,*-a cheap dvd /burner for now. Well that's all i for now if you guys could leave your comments and suggestions that would be great
P.S. What Intel socket should i use 1155 or 2011 and what is the difference?
