Want to be PC gamer. Need advice please.
Hello guys, this is my first post ever, and I need some advice from someone PC savvy, if that's the correct term. I'm looking to get into PC gaming and am thinking about building my own PC, since I hear it's much cheaper than buying a pre-made one and better to a point. I was wondering what the best brand of components I need/should buy for the best PC experience possible. You may need to be specific if you intend on explaining something to me as I am not very familiar with PC's and the gaming side of them, been a console player since I began playing video games.
If you guys could post the web addresses to online stores that sell the components I'd much appreciate it.
Thank you
Sorry for not editing this in earlier as I should have had this in from the beginning, my budget is around $1000-$1500.

However, if you've never built one and you feel you don't have enough experience to build one yourself, there's nothing wrong with buying a decent pre-built. It's a bit more expensive, but it's a good start for someone who doesn't have a lot of experience. There are people here (and pretty much everywhere) that get pretty grumpy when they hear the word [i]pre-built[/i], but it's not about them, it's about you. I learned most of what I know from taking apart and replacing parts in pre-builts, and I wouldn't take that back if I could. If I were still a PC newbie, what I would do is buy a pre-built with decent specs but no graphics card. Then I'd buy a graphics card separately and install it.
