OK, so basically I've picked up this new job, in the near to mildly distant future I want a fast, quiet gaming pc that can play League of legends an games like Call of duty and maybe BF4 on medium settings, (i dont care all too much about how it looks as long as it runs constantly well) I don't quite have a set budget yet so anything is expected, help me please (I have build computers before I just don't know how each specific part works in certain games, I'm not exactly a noob, i know some but not all)

Specific currency? Any idea of a budget?

Get the 7950, it's a 280(x) but the 280 is rebadged. It is also on sale now.

just a heads up, you shouldn't spend the same amount on your cpu as your gpu. most games only need quad core as of now. the 7950 for an extra 70 bucks will make your system last longer

I don't think they'd need an H100i for teh Pentium. A decent tower cooler is fine. If going with watercooling, an 120mm unit is perfect.

Why are you replying to a post from July? lol

 

I chose the 200r to shed some money, and then spend that money where it counts. Besides it's not that bad of a case.
