INTRODUCTION My boss needs help buying a brithday present for his son. He has decided to get him the best gaming computer $1000 can buy. He also wants to impress his son so he has given me the challenge. "Make my son happy! Here is a thousand dollars."
AND A WAY WE GO!
If you want a gaming PC you need power. Of course it has to look KOOL. I have done the research and I have a winner. I will go my process of picking a system and upgrading the core components and explaining my reasoning.
First I will start off with a gaming system that is preconfigured and has all the components needed for a simple gaming system. Since we have money to play with I upgraded some components. I will go though the major componets and discuss upgrading or not upgrading. Below is an image of the final dream machine.
