So, I'm running all across the web to get suggestions for my first build, which of course happens to be a gaming focused rig.
I'm upgrading from a 2010 MacBook Pro that I've somehow managed to game on until now.
Here's a list of everything that I've chosen so far, while tying to keep to my budget of 1K.
Comments, opinions and suggestions are very, very welcome.
