Planning on a 1000$ Gaming-Computer

Well Hello TechTips forums!

 

 

I'm planning to buy a Computer of 1000$ (can be more) and 200$ for (monitor + OS) so 1200$!

 

But I can't really decide on every part I did or so, so I planned to get over here and ask you guys! ;)

 

If you can set-up a list from 1200$ (Monitor + OS) I would really appreciate that!  :) -Issam

Do you want the parts to be picked out in europe or the US?

$200 for OS and monitor  Windows is about $100 on its own so $100 for the monitor.

Whilst monitors are availlable at that price do you really want to display the output from a $1,000 computer on a $100 monitor?

here is something i was looking for http://pcpartpicker.com/user/wadewilsonsc2/saved/4Ci5
no hdd because i have one, but you can easy buy one if needed ( will be around $55-60)

TOTAL: $828.88(build) + $60 ( if hdd needed) + $110(benq monitor: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AX9Z6MU/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER) + $110( windows 8) = $1108.88

if you don't like amd, you would need at most +$50 to get i5 instead of fx. motherboards are around the same $, but you might need to add more cash since some intel things more pricy.

if you dont need the xeon's hyperthreading for multi-threaded applications like video editing you can of course go with a i5 and spend more on the video card ;)

If he lives near a Micro Center, it would be the same price as a FX.
