There you go...includes a tier one power supply that is fully modular, a decent graphics card, with about 100 dollars more you could get a water cooling unit. It also includes a SSD with a storage drive. Operating system, reliable motherboard, and the lastest LGA 1150 Processor. This is a build I would fully recommend as well as build myself.

 

Also as a bonus that case has a window and is fully ready for a custom water loop without sacrificing air flow if you decide against that.

If you've previously won the build off please pm me so we can get something worked out.

Preferences man...we don't judge your computers. Although I would agree...however Intel has quality on their side. Yet I am partial to AMD, and in no way bias.

Can somebody put together a list for me? No peripherals just the pc and os.

 

 

Gaming, US, Windows 8.1.

 

Forgot to mention my bad.

 

Edit: my bad I confused the budget with another tab. This one fits the budget.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

I left out the SSD to stay at least close to the budget but I would suggest finding the money to get one as well as getting a liquid cooler like the H100i If you plan to OC :)
Hope this helped :)
