My $720 Gaming PC Complete Components List

This is my first PC due to being a die-hard Mac user (and still am). I’m an equally die-hard gamer, so it makes sense for me to finally build a gaming rig. I’ve already been doing some PC gaming on my MacBook Pro with Boot Camp (that won me over).

All my PC parts are set to arrive tomorrow. I shopped around for the best deals from Amazon, NewEgg, and Tiger Direct. This time Amazon and Tiger Direct won out on price, shipping, and no sales tax in my state. I also ordered just in time to catch a few deals before they sold-out.

I went with the high-end of budget gaming PC parts… I could have trimmed a few corners to keep the cost down a bit if I were on a tighter budget.

Ordered from Tiger Direct:

All said and done, it costed me about $640 for the above parts. If you add the case, powersupply, and soundcard I bought off my friend; it comes to about $720. I think I did well, under $1000 for a formidable gaming rig isn’t bad.
