Hey guys,
After months of research and reading reviews i have made 2 builds (intel & amd). I plan on buying the parts once i finish saving up, hopefully this summer. My current budget is $2000 max including tax/warranty etc. Please let me know if my build selections are good enough for gaming (Bf3, blackops2, crysis 3 etc.) and also editing (photoshop, adobe premier, adobe effects etc.). All the prices are taken from amazon, newegg, ncix and canada computers.
