I need

[Stag]

To build a new computer. My daughter had spilled juice all over it and kicked it and pulled and pushed it and it had its last day recently. Whom can help me with getting the right components, thanks friends

[Redkulaid]

whats your budget? and what do you need it for etc.

Do you need a new case? stuff like that. With price range and what you need, and use it for, I can help you out.

[Stag]

Yeah let's just start with absolutely nothing and build full computer, and for a budget I guess id like to keep it under 1300, but I have a nice monitor and keyboard so I don't need that

WAIT! you have a child?

stag u can build a top of the line comp for like 800$ now so if ur shooting for under 1300 it should be no problem to build a high end computer.

I dunno about "top of the line" for $800, but definitely decent. If you're building a gaming rig with a $1300 budget, I might spring for SSD (~$250) and a high-end video card ($300-400). Those make the biggest impact, so splurge there. You should be able to get the rest of the components and still stay under budget without much trouble.

My 5 minute browse on newegg came back with...

Power: $115 (once you try a modular PS, you can't go back)
Case: $100 (love my Antec cases)
CPU: $290
Motherboard: $120
Memory: $54
SSD:$210 (I haven't tried this one personally, so do you homework on SSDs. They're worth it.)
Video Card:$320

Total: $1209 + tax

I'm sure someone else find better deals; I just chose the brands I usually stick with.

Excellent, thanks Asano. I would just spend some ridiculous amount on this computer but I just recently caved and bought the Apple MacBook Pro which was a god chunk of change

I've had the 900 for the last 5 years and I've always been happy with it, have you seen the fairly recent Corsair cases? Depending on my budget I think I'll be going with them when I get home sometime early next year. So many fan placement options, pretty spacious with both sides of the case being removable, plus they all look killer.
