I like this better. The OP doesn't include an optical drive, though, but does include a wireless card; Swap those and it's golden.

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.

Will work good my build is pretty similar :)

 

You didnt say a budget so i chose whatever ;)

 

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/DmXddC

 

Get a 3gb+ videoram card,unless you really want Nvidia which only offers gTX 780 with 3gb + ram or so,get the R9 290.

Get 1600-1866 mhz ram.

Get an SSD for windows.

Get a 4690 non-K it has higher base clock,if you dont OC its better this one.

Get a cpu cooler stock is not enough even if you dont OC,even for 4570,i have it and its crap stock.I didnt choose a cooler cause im tired and im not up to date with new cooler and prices you dont need to go overboard on non overclokable cpu tough.

 

PC partpicker shows pretty low prices tought are they even real?i live in Europe so idk,but if you can get such low prices thats what i would build.

Actually Im not from USA neither, I just put the PcPartPicker link because its easier lol

Oh, and where I live the GTX 770 costs 600 dollars, and the R9 290 its 700 and thats too much. The R9 280x its almost the same as the 770 and I like Nvidia more so im going for the 770
