    1. What is your budget? I'd say about 800 tops, if that's even realistic with the stuff I'd need with it xD

    2. What will be the main purpose of the computer? Mostly gaming, bar that, movies and whatnot. So perhaps a good screen could go with the build?
    Games I'd play are Starcraft 2, LoL, WoW, GW2, DotA 2. Nothing too heavy, and I'm not THAT bothered about graphics quality either. I'd just want fluid framerates at higher resolutions though decent quality can't hurt, especially in DotA 2. Anything under med is just painful to watch >.>

    3. Do you need a copy of Windows? Yep. Or... Thepiratebay? :3

    4. Can you use any parts from an old computer? Don't think so.

    5. Do you need a monitor? Yes

    5a. If yes, what size do you need. I'd cap it at around 23", so long as I can comfortably see everything on screen like the UI or pings etc.

    5b. If no, what resolution is your current monitor and do you plan to upgrade in the near future?     N/A

    6. Do you need any of these peripherals? Keyboard, maybe a wireless card and speakers to go with. Either that or I could just use my old headset for the time being xD
    I've always had laptops so I don't have anything else to work with bar a mouse.

    7. Are you willing to try overclocking? Yes

    8. How can you pay? Credit Card, Bank Transfer, Cash

    9. When are you purchasing? Late summer most likely

    10. If you need help building it, where are you based? Don't need help :)

    Side note; I've been looking into AMD CPU's, the FX series to be specific. Yay or nay in comparison to similarly priced Intel counterparts?
