Whats your budget?
Once you let us know your budget, what all do you need to buy?
ie. Do you need a new speaker system, keyboard/mouse, hard drives, case, monitor?
You usually can recycle at least a few parts from an old box if you are going to cannibalize it

Maybe you should give us more detail on what you want, we cant really give you much with that teeny bit
Re: need new gaming pc - Valentine Wiggin - 06-07-2009
i really don't want to spend more than $2500 and would like to start fresh with a whole new system
Re: need new gaming pc - Blues - 06-07-2009
While I wouldn't normally suggest it, if you have this much money to blow, build an i7 machine. I'll work up a cart later tonight.

A proppa gaming rig costs like 600 at most.
Re: need new gaming pc - Mr. Face - 06-07-2009

Lololol, just because she thinks they cost that much doesn't mean she needs to spend that much. I guess you can make a killer beast machine that costs half that for fun though.

This too, most good gaming PCs shouldn't cost more than 1000
3000+ - Splurging on unnecessary things
2000 - 3000 - Bleeding Edge
1000 - 2000 - Mostly all New Stuff
700 - 1000 - Usually very solid
600 and Lower - Budget
* Numbers may vary highly from person to person

Yea I built a rough draft rig on newegg last night..without PSU and CPU. Went up to around $630. Tho, when I actually go to build this rig the parts will all be obsolete so I'm probably going to do another draft closer to fall (when I'm going to build a new rig for myself..my own birthday present..joy).
Anyways, I'm looking into motherboards that support 8G-16G RAM. I'm debating on going to DDR3 though..not sure if it's worth it yet.

id go for ddr3 before i go for 16 gigs of ram. you only need that if you running a server.
Re: need new gaming pc - Wedge - 06-07-2009
Even DDR3 is pretty much dirt cheap now, no reason not too really.

It's just looking forward. I want 8G to start with. And when I'm done with that build I can install some more RAM to have a full 16 or a little less and use it as a server. My faux-Dell rig right now only supports 4 gigs :-[
Re: need new gaming pc - Blues - 06-07-2009
It's not like you need more than 4GB right now. By the time you utilize 8 they'll have changed standards again, look at how fast we went from DDR2 to DDR3. Gotta agree with Zane, definitely go with DDR3 before you worry about 8-16GB of RAM.
Also she was talking about a prebuilt, which would be a good explanation as to the 2500 limit.
Re: need new gaming pc - Valentine Wiggin - 06-07-2009
when i get one i'm probably gonna have pokeman build it for me :-*
Re: need new gaming pc - Blues - 06-07-2009
I'm not a Pokemon I'm a Blue(s). If I do I'm putting a bomb in it.
Re: need new gaming pc - Valentine Wiggin - 06-07-2009
i thought we agreed on no bombs
Re: need new gaming pc - Blues - 06-07-2009
No anthrax, possibly bombs.
