Ive had my current computer for over 8 years and its fine for everyday use,but.... I'm looking to get a tower for gaming as well. I plan on keeping my monitor,mouse and keyboard so as i said I'm looking to get a new tower built. My current resolution is 1600 X 900 and i was wondering what some of you well learned in the way of computers would recommend. I'm also looking to get a temp/fan display and I'm looking to spend from 2000-2400. Any help would be very much appreciated!Heart

why do you want a temp display? there are softwares that can do that, also the temp display will work only with upgraded fans, which is not needed, will produce more noise, and basically cost more money for no performance gain if you will.

You bring up a very good point. I guess when on a budget wasting money on something that's not giving some sort of performance gain is not a smart idea XD I appreciate the help!
