First build.

[Manar]

Hello everybody,

 

It's my first build for gaming (BF4 50-60fps) and editing video with vegas pro 12. I would like to keep my pc for 3-5 years with no upgrade. I want him to be really snappy and no crashs. Is this a good build? what can I do better? . I have a budget of 700$ with the OS. With the promos in the future I think I will be able to not run over my budget. Thanks for the help.

I assume you have a 1080p monitor

Looks nice, but I'm not sure if a 270 gets 50 to 60 FPS on battlefield

It will if you optimize correctly

Will the x4 270K last for a long time on a OC to 4ghz?

depends how long, i don't suggest overclocking unless you would need to overclock to keep up with systems in the future when your system is a few years old.
