Don't know if you needed windows as well so I didn't include that. Feel free to ask any questions about anything including motivations for certain choices.

 

Edit: Forgot to add CPU cooler for Oc'ing, fixed it now.

Thanks Archangel1994

You could expand your budget by about $100 so you can get a 250GB SSD as well.

 

Edit: Also mark your thread as solved if you have no further questions/doubts.

I agree with this build except HDD. 1TB WD Black drive is unnecessary. I would rather pick 2TB Seagate Barracuda which is also slightly cheaper http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seagate-internal-hard-drive-st2000dm001

[Archangel1994]

Awesome and ok i'll do that!

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/crucial-internal-hard-drive-ct240m500ssd1 is not a bad choice if you want a cheaper SSD.

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/samsung-internal-hard-drive-mz7te250bw is a prime choice if you want an SSD which you can nobrain because it is incredible.

I picked Caviar black since I didn't put in an SSD. If you do however make that budget expansion for an SSD get http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seagate-internal-hard-drive-stbd2000101 instead of the caviar black indeed.

Archangel one question, do you think that computer would be able to play Ultra/High settings or high/medium settings or medium/low settings??? Just woundering, I'm probobly still gonna get it.

[ilikemacandpc]

Actually, a 1TB Seagate hybrid drive would be the fastest.

Assuming a 1080p monitor it will be able to play all games on high settings decently at the least. Some games like crysis 3 are more demanding and might not be able to run on high decently but all other games on high easily and decently.

I slightly adjusted your build to fit SSD.. no performance hit.
