I'm late to the game here, but I'm planning on building my first PC here shortly. I know nothing, except what I want from it. I'd like to have the ability to do casual gaming, on a rig that I can use for photo processing and music producing. Being a complete nub, I'm not sure where to start. I have about $1,000 - $1,500 to spend. Any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
for "casual gaming" maybe you don't have to spend 1k ?
I'm not saying I have to, but if I can, why not? I'd love to have a pc that I dont have to worry about system requirements for any game, but be able to handle my workload of photo and music processing as well
Games are the more demanding part. Anyway, this is well rounded for the budget:
