I was wanting to know if someone would be willing to help me pick out parts for my computer as R00t's post is no longer open. I have a large budget so please only post if you really know what you are talking about. Im going to use R00t's old thing to kind of talk about what im looking for

Budget & Currency: $2,600 USD

Peripherals & Monitor: Im looking for a very high res. monitor with at least a 60 refresh rate. Im in need of a pretty good mouse and keyboard as well. the triple monitor setup is optional if I have it in my budget.

Games: Minecraft, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Dishonored, Garrys Mod, pretty much every type of game you can think of.

Software: C4D, Sony Vegas 11, Photoshop, Total Media Extreme, Adobe Flash CS5

Aesthetics: The case I want is a NZXT SWITCH 810 case.

Details: I would like an intel core i7 processor, and i need a really good video card so i can run games on high quality without lag, also i need it to run minecraft with a 64x64 texture pack without any lag. Im going to be doing ALOT of editing in Sony Vegas along the lines of gameplays and stuff like that, so not sure if i should go with 8 or 16 gigs of ram. As I said I do need a mouse and keyboard along with a monitor


If anybody out there could help me it would be extremely appreciated

Idk what you mean by frame and screen. Im buying parts like ram, a motherboard, graphics card and other items then putting them together to make the pc.

OS: Windows 7 or 8

Although that is a VERY nice build, I still have to have money left over for a mouse, keyboard, and monitor. And is the i5 3570k better than say a i7 3770k or a i7 3820?
