Hey, everyone! I've been looking for a new desktop mostly because i have only ever gamed on a laptop and i think its about time to move onto something serious. I was thinking of choosing the parts on cyberpowerpc and letting them build it but then i did consider of trying to build it by myself. I'm not very computer savvy and it would be a challenge but i think i would consider the idea. I have never done anything like this so any advice would be very helpful to me.
I would like to be able to run new end games on high settings if possible. Battlefield 3, Diablo 3, WoW, and GW2 were the main games i would like to at least sufficiently be able to enjoy playing. I would want my main budget to be less than 800 dollars because i don't currently have that much to spend. I would like to consider putting an OS with my purchase but i do not need a monitor. I have looked around on other people's build threads and came across a build by Butler Log that i was very interested in.
