I am a long time console gamer. My friends and the internet has showed me the way to the PC gaming, and I want a gaming rig for around 900$ and I am not too tech savy and I was wondering if any one could help me with this.

Cpu: Minimum a Quad Core

GPU: Minimum needs to run some of the top games at 1080p max-very high settings

RAM: 8 gigabytes 1600mhz

Storage: Only want a 120gb ssd I have a spare HDD

If you can help it would be very appreciated

Yes sir if you search for NCIX assembly on their site it will pop up and then you can select that option for 50$ this is what it's called 

 

"PC Assembly and Testing With 1 Year Limited NCIX System Warranty"

they also have a price matching system meaning if you see someone selling the same item on Newegg or ebay for less they will match that price :D and thats why according to lifehacker its one of the best sites you can use to buy parts for your pc

I was also a hardcore console gamer just like you I bought a limited edition Xbox360 and a sexy Ps3 (160gb fat glossy one) I spent about a 1,000$ on the console alone 4 years ago and that shit isn't even worth anything anymore thats why I going to build my own custom rig and if you work for Bestbuy for 30 days you also get a 50% off dwag so that way if you do get a job you can get stuff thats worth a lot more for a lot less
