Well, I wanted to try building my own computer that would (hopefully) last until I finish college. I'm going to major in game designing, animation, and such and I would also like to play games on it (Like Dragon Age: Origins) on a medium or high setting just as long as the game looks good and not choppy or laggy or something. My budget would probably be around $1000 might be able to spare a bit more, but I want to keep it from getting any higher and lower if I can. This is what I was able to gather up. I'm sure I'm missing some parts, but I don't know what. So, any advise would be helpful.
