Okay everyone,

 

I'm now saving up money to buy a new PC for Gaming/Sound design (music production) But mostly gaming.

 

I am going to be saving up to around 900-1000$ range for this PC.

 

Can anyone give me a recommendation on what parts to get? I have full knowledge of building a computer but I have no real in depth knowledge on buying parts, Like best bang for your buck kind of buying.

 

So can you guys give me a list of parts not including peripherals (monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc) That will give me the ABSOLUTE bang for my buck for gaming.

 

Oh and i don't care if its an AMD machine as long as I'm getting optimal performance.

Used a Xeon because it will benefit you in music production, and it is just as good for gaming. Although you cannot overclock. Chose a typical black/red color scheme for the sake of it. If you want any other color schemes just let me know.

Alright sweet, It looks good although I would like the price range to be between 900-1000 if thats possible. And the color scheme doesn't matter as I probably wont be staring at my PC at night haha.
