I need a new computer any suggestions?

[boboy1999]

I have a macbook pro but it does not quite cut if for gaming and miltitasking. My budget is about 1000$. I would like a good gaming computer that is also good at video editing and miltitasking.
I need something that is also not too bulky amd heavy. Any suggestions?

It's a bit more expensive than what you wanted, but not so much that it would hurt. I didn't include a CPU Cooler because I am assuming you don't want to overclock your CPU. The motherboard I chose is relativly cheap, and should be upgraded pretty soon. I added an SSD for better boot up times. The video card I chose is a bit on the low end. It'll run minecraft, but not much else. The video card is a bit long, so you'll have to remove some drive bays in the case. I added Windows 8.1, but you can substitute that with any other OS. You'll need a wireless adaptor, which I added. I didn't add any monitors or other accessories.

This sounds great. Thanx alot. I do love my mac but it doesnt quite keep up with the gaming and multitasking.The price is just right. Ill do some more research but this computer might be the one. This is why mcsg staff is great.

That looks good except i would go for a western digital hard drive instead of sea gate, they are just a bit more reliable in my opinion. i also like windows 7 better but that is just a personal prefrence
