    Default Putting a Computer together

    Okay, my computer was customized by my cousin about three years ago, the system was pretty powerful, it would run any game smoothly and perfectly on highest settings. It can also run most games today perfectly as well, but I think its time I get a new system with all these new stuff out. I am a complete noob at these things so I was wondering if people can help me out with what parts to buy for my new custom system, so it can run almost anything today and in the future. Also would it be stupid to get a new computer now, since I only got it three years ago? Also I am a gamer, so I'm preferring things that will be better for games, not graphic design and stuff like that.

    Thanks, RoadKill

    So....first of all do you have someone that can put it togeather for you or will you be ordering a custom one online?

    Secondly, whats your budget?

    I can put it together myself, but if i am unable to I can get someone else, but I want to know what parts I should buy that are powerful. My budget can be from 1500 - 2000 canadian.

    He might want something a little different, or a little more personalized, and not want to hijack the other thread. No problem there.

    That may be the case but he didn't ask that. If he wants what he asked for, I think they got that pretty much sorted in the other thread thats all.
    BTW, congrats on 1000 posts RoadKill.
