New Puter!

May 04, 2008 17:44

Yup, I'm building myself a new computer. The one I have was custom built by a friend of mine back in 2002! Although it has not let me down (except when the fan of the videocard fell off, causing the card to overheat and get fried and short circuiting the motherboard in the process) it is one fine piece of machinery. However, I think it's time to update, and I wants me a quad core comp in a shiny new case.

But, I'm getting a headache in choosing a mobo and videocard. My budget is 1,500 - 2,000. Below is a list of some stuff I want.

If you all can help me out and lend your advice on the type of mobo / video card to get, I would greatly appreciate. I'd do this all by myself, but the time I have to self-educate on the latest technology and features is lacking, and I find myself having to rely on knowledge of others.

And, most importantly, I plan on using this comp for gaming and some serious photo editing/video editing. I'm going to purchase adobe production suite (http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/production/) and play me some kick ass games in the process. I also want to get a vid card that will have a second dvi or hdmi output so i can send my movies to be shown on my TV!

So if you have time, help me out and offer me some advice plz!
