I'm looking to spend up to roughly $1500, provided it will last me a long time. Ideally I'd like a SSD for the OS and a video card that can handle two monitors (though I think my current 2600 should theoretically be good for my future needs). Apart from that, I've been so long out of the computer building game that everytime I try to read up on what's new, my eyes glaze over and I lose interest. Any help would be nice.  |
Your specs might be the same as mine:
i7 920 @ 2.67Ghz CPU
Windows 7 Enterprise 64Bit
12GB Ram
Asus P6T
650W Corsair PSU
NVIDIA Geforce 8800 GTS
Samsung 500GB 7200RPM
Antec 900 Case
Dell 2410
But I just bought a 120GB Intel SSD for $140 and a EVGA GTX 580 3GB for $450 off ebay to upgrade my C: and vid card. Except I'll be handling multiple CAD software simultaneously when I'm rendering designs.
