The PCPARTPICKER pc doesn't have good ram for an APU, its cas 11 1600, not even cas 11 2400/2133 as it should be for the APU.As well as a possibly horrible built in PSU and the wireless adapter is usb... I would reccomend austins anyday

1080p? Doubtful

He ran med settings with 27 FPS avg, so maybe. but then again, he's using a more powerful 7850k compared to 7700k.

I woudln't even bother with getting that. Just wait a bit and you can get a lot better pc that will be able to play BF4 1080p Ultra. Youll only need $300-$400 more and you will be much better suited for gaming.

[ColorfulShardMC]

what is the different between the 7700k and the 7850k?

Try this. You can take out the CPU cooler if you want to save some money.

Not worth the upgrade that will come in a year, or so....

 

Recommend saving, and waiting.

Power Supply: EVGA 430W 80+ Certified $34.99 + $3.14 (Tax) = $38.13 @ Amazon
Total: $382.24 - $4.19 (Promo) + $3.85 (Shipping) + $33.97 (Tax) = $415.87

Note: You will be charged a lot of shipping on the case by NCIX unless you have a cart over $100 and therefore pay no shipping. To do that you can take advantage of their price matching. Try to price match the video card, as that'll get your cart over $100 ez; but also try on the cpu to save on shipping. The case in fact is cheaper at newegg but they don't hide their shipping cost; so price match the case as well. The motherboard also can be price matched on a different store, which will make it cheaper once shipping cost is out of the equation.
