First off, I just want to say, I'm no computer genius. I can put them together and such. But I have no idea when it comes to picking out parts (I am trying to learn). I recently got into pc gaming (xbox is a demon). I've gotten pretty good at all genres. Up until now its been all WoW and LoL.
But anyways, I have a decent laptop, HP Pavilion dv6, it works for now, but im struggling to play newer games and it is plagued with a overheating problem that came from the factory. So I'm looking to upgrade and give this to my GF, who is a less hardcore gamer than I.
I have a $600 budget and am willing to go a Max of $750 (i'de rather not though). I have a desktop currently and would like to just upgrade it over time as I buy parts.
But here is what i have so far:
