An i7 is not necessary for gaming....only an i5 at most.

OT: What price so you want this knocked down to?

  • 12.20.2012 10:38 AM PDT

I really wouldn't change that build...


For the price and what you are buying, I think you are pretty close to spot on.


It's the monitor and stuff driving up the price of your P.C.


normally monitor/keyboard/mouse, aren't considered in the building price.

You really don't need a gaming keyboard or mouse unless you're playing games with a lot of hotkeys.

I have a standard Dell keyboard and mouse and I still finish in the top half in 90% of games.

Just about any keyboard....but the right mouse IS more important.

OP....just make sure that whatever mouse you get has a DPI of AT LEAST 1600....nothing less.

Right below $1100 for the base price.

EDIT: Or somewhere close to that...

But it's already below $1100...

"Ignorance is a plague."

Close, but the plague killed those infected with it, and the ignorant are still alive.
I wish ignorance was a plague.

It's already a good deal.

For the base price. The base price is a lot higher.

I want to get everything off of Amazon.

Why?

All of the stores listed on there are safe to buy from....except for B&H....I don't even recognize that store.

You can get a console for almost a quarter of that price.

In all seriousness, get rid of that useless keyboard and mouse that you think will "help" you, and get a smaller monitor.

  • 12.20.2012 10:50 AM PDT

Get a cheaper monitor, get rid of that stupid keyboard and pirate windows 7.

I want to get it at least just below $1100.

If you have any suggestions, then thanks. Make sure that you don't downgrade it too much though. I want it to stay in the same general area.

Also if you're wondering why I'm not posting this in the PC building thread, it's because I want more replies cause that helps with something like this.

Linky.

EDIT: I want the base total down.
Umm. It is right below 1100? Look at the final price its 1098

AMD is cheaper then intel. It has similar performance unless you want to overclock.

  • 12.20.2012 11:10 AM PDT

mouse, keyboard, get a normal 3570 and not the K because I doubt you are watercooling so no need to get the overclockable version.
