First PC build (kinda)

Go to solution Solved by FloRolf,

Whats the difference between the P2414H and the VX239H?

Dell is known for their awesome Ultra Sharp series. Its one of the best monitors in that price range. Also you get a DVI port and dont have to rely on hdmi (i personally hate hdmi \o/) and its generally better :P

Hey, I'm looking to build a PC for myself sometime in 2014, just need some advice on the parts. I've been planning this build for 1 1/2 years now ( I had just bought a new laptop).

 

I've have experience building PCs, as 6 going on 7 of my friends have built PCs them selves. I've helped build 3 of them (4th one this weekend :D)

 

The parts are in my signature :D

 

for the full specs download the picture attached

 

appreciate any help :)

So you are looking for a new build, and the picture shows what you already have? I see no compelling reason to upgrade right now, actually, but we will need a budget first.

sorry what i meant was this is the build i want to buy, right now i have a laptop with a 670M

lookin good to me. You dont need a 750w psu though. Go with the CX500m, unless you want to sli your 770 later on, then stick with the 750w.

 

Could you link us to the shop your buying from? :)
