I've built a system around that. (1k was dedicated to the monitor)

Lol that's mad

My current pc is getting a bit old and i'm looking for an upgrade, but i have not stayed up todate with all the new parts coming out and i'm wanting to know what i get for the value of my money.

I would check out places dedicated to building a PC (PCPartsPicker, Reddit.com/r/BuildAPC , Logicalincriments) to look at your options. Do you need a monitor, keyboard, case, accessories? Do you want to go Intel or AMD? ATI or Nvidia? Do aesthetics matter to you? Is it for video creation? Gaming? Browsing? 

 

Would a laptop work better for you?


These are the type of questions you are going to have to answer before someone can advise you on components. If you're looking for the current list of benchmarked items, I like to check http://www.logicalincrements.com , and swap the flag in the top right corner to my country (Canada!)

 

Best of luck.

You would be better off here:

Plus, please read the sticky beforehand so we can better help you:

 

Also, quote people when replying to them, so they get a notification that your replied. Quoting is the arrow button on the bottom of someone's post.

Are we just building a tower, or do you need keyboard/mouse/monitor/speakers/headphones/etc?

 

Are you looking to game at 1080p?  1440p?  4k?

 

What sort of games are you going to play?  What do you do with the computer aside from gaming?

 

Do you care more about high refresh rate or pretty graphics?

 

Do you want to just #YOLO money at the system, max stuff out, and not have to even think about upgrading it again for half a decade, or do you want to leave room for future upgrades if/when they're necessary, and buy newer hardware in a couple years?

 

What do you envision for your computer?  Standard full-ATX tower?  Compact mATX/ITX build?  Open-air case?  Color scheme?  This one is less important than the previous information, but it does help narrow components down a ton.

 

 

Without this information, we can't really steer you in the right direction too much.  Honestly we should probably have a sticky about what you (and I'm not just attacking the creator of this thread, but anyone wanting guidance on a build) need to tell us so we can help you better.
