Hey All,
So I need a new rig. Ive been going back and forth between trying to upgrade my Mobo and CPU and then upgrade other stuff later, but I just want a fresh slate. Came into some extra cash and can drop up to a grand on a new beast, but I would love to spend as little as possible.
I play WoW, Civ 5, Kerbal Space Program, do some CAD work, some video editing, and some graphic design stuff.
Here is what I have for a list:
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor ($231.99 @ NCIX US)
