so ive made my choice, im going to build a computer. im building it because 1. its cheaper than buying a pre-made computer over $1000, 2. i get exactly what i want, and 3. my dad doesn't really want me to get a new pc, but i said we could build it as a summer project and he agreed.
so my budget is $2000 maybe a little more, hopefully a little less. What id like to know for now is what hardware to use. heres what ive decided so far.
CASE- ATX-MID TOWER – not sure which model
CPU- Intel Core i7-2700K @ 3.50GHz
Or
Intel Core i7-3820 @ 3.60GHz
RAM- 16-24gb DDR3 CORSAIR VENGEANCE
SYSTEM- MS WINDOWS 7 PRO 64
PSU- ?
HARD DRIVES-
240gb SSD
4-6b HDD (1.5tb-2tb each)
OPTICAL DRIVE- ?
MOTHERBOARD- ?
DVD DRIVE- ?
GRAPHICS CARD - ?
ANYTHING ELSE???????????
so does this look good? what do you recommend to fill in the blanks and '?'s? what else do i need for a computer optimized for power, speed, and using Fl studio, and komplete 8 as well as many other samples and vsts (possibly 100+) without problems or going slow/crashing?
any info on building a pc would help, thanks.
