Thanks to UltraNeonGaming I will be posting my build i should be getting done by August.

Budget & Location My top budget would be $3000. But i dont wan to go THAT high simple because i only have a part time job and it will take alot longer.

I Also live in Australia and the currency Is AUD

 

Aim: I am building this computer to play games (80%) Photoshop work, web browsing and video editing.

The type of gaming is FPS. thats really all i play. So battlefield hardline, dayz, arma and csgo.

 

Monitors: i plan on running on 2 monitors for the moment. I got 1 samsung 24 inch (dont know anything else about it.

and im going to purchase my main monitor: http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=27743&cPath=1090which im using for all gaming since its 144hz and 1ms Response time.

i guess they will be 1080p. 

 

Peripherals. I need to purchase a headset. (Sennhesier Game one black) a keyboard (Corsair Vengence k70 RGB) The monitor (listed above) and i need to buy Windows 8 64bit OSM

 

Why are you upgrading? Im upgrading because all i have got right now is a god damn apple imac. which barely runs minecraft at 100 fps and has 1000 issues with it i dont like. and i generally dont like apple products either. so im upgrading so i can have my own personal Pc to use and game on whenever i want. Not like before where i had to share with my siblings (Lmfao it sucks)

 

thanks for the help guys!

I wouldn't recommend the 840 Evo due to the slowdown problems
