Hi im pretty new to building computers. I did some research and i think i know some decent hardware to pick out. I want to get a kinda high end pc since my summer job is paying nicely. It needs to be under $2000.
and im confused my proc. I've heard amd prices are being cut by 50% on the 25th, which will work out nicely, but im not sure if i should get the new intel proc when it comes out instead. The only problem is that i dont have a $1000 to spend on a proc.
so heres my new egg list so far, please leave comments about things im missing or suggestions
