PC for iRacing and other miscellaneous gaming

What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

 

Mostly iRacing, a little bit of Terraria and Minecraft

 

What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

 

• $800-$900

 

When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.

 

• ASAP

 

What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc)

 

• Just a tower

 

Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?

 

• Oregon which has no Microcenters AFAIK

 

If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.

 

• Reusing an old Dell monitor and keyboard as well as a gaming mouse, I plan to eventually upgrade the monitor.

 

Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?

 

• If necessary, I'm not completely sure what it is or how necessary it is.

 

Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)

 

• I would prefer a SSD and an Intel processor as I believe Intel runs iRacing better than AMD.

 

Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-tower/full-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?

 

• No particular preferences, I would prefer blue and cheap.

 

Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?

 

• I do, but I think I read I can get one for cheap somewhere.

 

Extra info or particulars:

The ability to be connected to the internet wirelessly and wired would be nice.
