hey guys my friend wanted me to choose components for his pc and im a bit busy building my own i need you guys help in deciding the right components , i think he is going to use it for video rendering and mostly gaming (very demanding games like bf4, witcher 2 ,3 etc) so well he is on a budget i think around 1000 CAD hes got his old monitor and Os so its all about the components. please help in picking the parts!

Alright that should give him the ability to do some editing and should get good performance across 1080p games. Also, if he wants to make use of shadowplay he would have to switch to a 770

so an amd processor would be bad for rendering considering his budget?

Well an AMD processor isn't bad for rendering, however an i5 is worth fitting into the budget
