Hey all,
I'm trying my hand at putting together my first gaming pc (always just bought normal desktops and updated ram and video cards to be honest).
The goal is to put together something that will run most new games well (fallout 4) as well as be powerful enough to take on the new vr tech that will be coming out soon.
I've tried a build on Cyberpower and I "think" it should be good for what I need. However since I'm very very green at this I could be missing something important so it would just be GREAT if I could get some help from people smarter in this area then I am.
I'm trying to stay around the $1000 mark but obviously if I have to spend more to make the build work that is fine.
