I was referring to the fact that the OP wanted input from only females. Which btw, there aren't many on this forum. The chances of finding a female PC builder with artistic views is next to none.

ONE GUESTION WHICH OS WIN7 OR 8

 

Windows 8. The developer preview I've tested and it seems it has too many bugs. The professional version is the stable version. It should be working flawlessly on professional version

That's her account for this forum.

Right, I just looked into that, but either way, i wasn't saying she posted much, just that she's a girl, into hardware, and her builds are all really aesthetically pleasing

I didn't say girls that are into hardware don't exist. I said you won't find many here.

I don't get what the fuss is about here, and you guys are all about pink and purple, but she just wants something sleek, clean, and beautiful for a girl.

 

I Built my Girlfriend a Gaming PC, White is the key.

 

Personally the 2 Best Cases I can recommend you to build around are:

 

NZXT H630: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146103

NZXT Source 210 Elite: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146077

 

White is a great look for the case, even I love it!

 

Perfect matching components would be:

 

Corsair Vengeance-LP White 8GB Dual Channel Kit - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233199

RAIDMax 500W White 80 Plus Bronze PSU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817152040

EVGA GTX 760 2GB - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130938
LG DVD Drive - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827136259

Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136533

Gigabyte GA-Z87-D3HP - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128590

Intel Core i5-4670K - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116899


Should be good to go with that. As for KB/Mouse It's up to you :D

I swapped the CPU and GPU out for an APU and a mini-ITX board and case, should be plenty for your sister.

 

that left about $220 for peripherals, so I got the best I could for the price.

 

an Acer 23 inch 1080p screen, a Microsoft Sidewinder X4 (is it mechanical? no. Am I using a mechanical right now? no), and a kensington wireless gaming mouse.

Few, I barely made the budget!

This is good for gaming.  People aren't giving good enough GPUs

It will go about 20$ over with peripherals but it's worth it

This is overkill from what I've read the usage of the system will be. 

For reference, a 7770/7850 is perfectly respectable for a budget LAN build.

That is within budget so it won't be overkill in the future

Thanks guys and sorry for pretty little info. She hates One Direction and pink color.. she's more like old school I mean like Nirvana Gunsnroses korn etc. loves rock. Green is her fav. color

 

 

Hi there, I need advise from ladies.. lol. My sister's birthday is coming and she wants a new PC. I wanna make a gift for her. Build one gorgeus PC under 800$. Any female members online ? please give me your advises about design etc. She'll be doing some web surfing, light photoshop editing and lotsa browser games. Thanks in advance :)

What is needed?

Everything including peripherals.

Hey! Who said only ladies cared about design? :P Just kidding, take a look at what I put together: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1e10r

So you said green is her fav color, you want something "gorgeous" for under 800$ and lastly, she'll be doing some "some web surfing, light photoshop editing and lotsa browser games". Mkay.

-So for light use, I decided to pick the A10 6800k, for 150$, it yields pretty kickass value since it already has a GPU and the usage will be fairly light, so we can put more money towards the look of the build.

-The main components are all black so nothing looks out of place and the color scheme is fairly unified.

-Now, some people might say that's stupid but, to be honest, when somebody isn't loading up their PC and whatnot, good peripherals will always give you a better experience rather than having a shitty 20$ keyboard from costco and an i5 that is more or less useful. Sooooooooooooooooooooo I went with the Razer Deathstalker (by far the best looking keyboard for under 100$. And it's green. WOOT. And a Mionix Naos to match (also with green LEDs).

-The monitor is 24" because if she's going to be doing some photoshop, she'll want a fair amount of screen real-estate.

-Now the tricky part. The case. I can't really know what your sister likes since looks are subjective. But I can give you some ideas since you definitely know your sister better than I do. The BitFenix Shinobi isn't a great looking case BUT you can buy it along with custom green accents (http://bit.ly/18ERhcD) which will make her PC look a little bit more unique if that's what she would crave according to you. But as I said before, the shinobi isn't the best looking case. If you want something sleeker, you could always drop the shinobi and the custom cooler and go for a Corsair 350D or a Fractal Design Define Mini (although this case looks sleek and is great, it doesn't always fit everybody's taste. Some complain that it looks like a fridge). If she likes old school stuff, I'd go for a 350D, imo. It looks a little bit more fierce and less understated than the Mini :P

Hope this helps you out! :)

-François

Quick question for you sister:

Lime green or military green?
