Hey guys.

 

Im building a gaming computer for myself for around $1000 Australian dollars. I want to put a GTX 960 in it when it comes out because it looks like it will be priced quite nicely and i want my computer to be able to run all present day games such as Far Cry 4.

 

So I know I want a GTX 960 in it for sure and I also want an i 5 (im not a overclocker so I don't care if it cant overclock) but I need help on all the other components such as the motherboard, case, ram, power supply and storage. 

 

For storage I want a SSD and a Hardrive.

 

I also "want" to put a liquid cooler for the CPU (top mounted) such as the Cooler Master Neptune 240M.

 

Can you guys tell me the best parts to use for a build like this... keep in mind that my budget is $1000 AUD. 

 

Thanks for all your help guys :D

The GTX 960 is rumored to be only slightly faster than GTX 770 iirc. So i dont think its gonna be a great deal in terms of price/performance at launch...
