Need help with PC building

[BringerOfSin]

Hello. I know absolutely nothing about PC building. I am looking to build a PC and one of my friends suggested I come here to find help. I am looking to spend about $1,000 on building one and want to know the best build I can get for it. I can spend more, but I would like to stick as close go $1,000 as I can. Another friend recommended I go to microcenter for cpu/mobo combos ..Please and thank you. Sorry for any errors in spelling, grammer or punctuagion by the way. My phone is being irritating.

Microcenter is definitely the way to go for CPU-MB combo. $290-320 for a good combo. Answers these questions and we can help you out:

• Budget
• Resolution
• Games / Settings Desired
• Any other intensive software or special things you do (Frequent video encoding, 3D modeling, etc)
• Country
• Parts that can be reused
• Do you need an OS?
• Do you need peripherals (e.g. monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc)?

If possible and you can afford it then swap the 120GB SSD for a 250GB SSD (same model)
