Building new PC

[brentrich]

Hi guys, I'm planning on build new PC this year.

For what reason - Game (mostly WOW) and adobe software (Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.)

Budget $1200 to $1500

I know that GPU and Ram is pricey right now but I'll worry about that later when it goes down. Want to have a good PC that can last 5 years or so. Need help with parts, etc.

Thanks in advance!

Have you reviewed the builds of the month Chaud throws together each month? It's a pretty good baseline and Narwhal sounds about where you would want. Can't link cause im a pro-lurker.. but it's linked from the main page in the top banner.

1070 would be the way to go.. But the current market has them just over your upper budget.

It´s insane how much prices have changed. I have build my own last pc 6 years ago and u were around 1500€ King. Nowdays forget it.

It's your lucky day, there's a combo sale for CPU/memory/mobo on Newegg and a 1080 for $700:

You have $150 to fit a case and an aftermarket cooler.
