Time for a new computer, ideas?

[BNuts]

I haven't built a computer in about 6 years, super busy with work and generally not caring. But PS2 looms on the horizon, and I am beginning a budget for my build;


1. What is your budget and does that include shipping/taxes?
900, without Shipping and Taxes

2. Where do you live?

Germany, with a US APO address

3. What do you need this computer to do (like gaming, Photoshop, and so on)?

Planetside 2, nuff said.

4. What parts will you need for the computer? Please list what parts specifically.

Case up.

5. Are you reusing any parts for this computer? If so please say what parts.

Have a Hard-drive and Monitor, everything else will need to be purchased.

6. What kind of monitor/resolution do you have or want to get to use for the computer?

Checking when I get off work.

7. Do you have a legit OS? If so what OS and is it 32-bit or 64-bit?

Legit??? I'd need a copy 64bit win7

8. What are you looking for the motherboard to have feature wise? Like SLI, Crossfire, Firewire, USB 3.0, Sata 6.0 Gb/s, and so on.

USB 3.0 / Sata 6gb/s

9. Any plans to overclock the CPU or GPU?

Yes / Yes

10. What time kind of time frame are you planning on ordering these parts?

Around the June / July timeframe

Oh, reason for waiting till Summer-timeframe; Moveing to new base, and Ivy Bridge

sounds like you pretty well know what you're doing.

Ivy Bridge i5, Z77? mobo, some ram, probably the mid-range nVidia (something like a 660 should probably be out by then?) or AMD card.

This a general idea of what to expect.

Seeing as how its only April come back within a few weeks of wanting to order the parts. Once you do that we'll get you a solid build together for what you need.
