1200$ Gaming Rig

Go to solution Solved by jtrier1,

So my friend wants help building a computer for 1200$, He wants it to be In the BitFenix Prodigy M Arctic White Case and Agreed to buy a Evga Gtx 680 SC Sig 2 from me for 350$ so That leaves 850$ for the rest of the build.

 

 

Any help would be nice, ive never built in a case that small.

 

Here's something I suggest. I didn't put a monitor or peripherals though.
