    Hey.

    Hey everyone, I'm Ryan.  I'm a college student and I'm looking at possibly putting together a rig for the first time.  I will have about $2000 this summer, though I may get a little more.  I would use it for gaming, along with a hint of video editing.  I hate to admit it, but my knowledge is only basic (more or less knowing just what each part does and how to install RAM).
