About how much money would i need for a very good build your own computer?
Davie Stee
Ok so ive earned $556 dollars in two months for my computer and im thinking im about halfway there, am i correct? or more? im looking for a computer with a very good amount of RAM and memory and a decent to good graphics card (i don't need amazing graphics, i just need one that will run many video games and mods to them, as i will be playing fallout 3, fallout new vegas, skyrim, minecraft, ect.) and also i heard its better to get a water cooling system rather than a fan cooling. So about how much will this cost? id rather save up for great rather than have to make changes here and there later on.
Answer
As this is your first build, I'd recommend you go with air cooling. If you want to go with a closed-loop (all-in-one - assembled) water cooler for the CPU, that would be OK. It's totally unnecessary unless you plan on overclocking the CPU a lot.
The Ivy-bridge CPUs and Nvidia Kepler GPUs run cool on air. I went from the Intel Core i5 760 to the Core i7 3770K and from the Nvidia Fermi 470 to the Nvidia Kepler 670. My CPU temps dropped nearly 20°C when under load (now about 55°C). My GPU temps dropped nearly 25°C (Now about 57-58°C). That's not even worth the effort of water cooling, IMO.
As to what it costs, I could put together a very nice system for about $1,000-$1,200 without a monitor, keyboard, mouse or speakers. (I.E., just the box.) http://pcpartpicker.com/ is your friend.

If you live near a Microcenter, you can shave $40-80 off the combined price of the CPU and motherboard by going into the store. It's a ploy, yes, but it will save you money.
Technically speaking, the SSD isn't required, but oh my, is it nice. My, oh my.
