So I have a budget of around $700, $720, to be exact. I need help finding a good gaming build. I would prefer to use an Intel CPU so that it's easier to upgrade later, and I would like to have a quad-core CPU. This budget does include a monitor, wireless card, and preferably a Disc Drive, but not an OS. Thank you in advance.

 

-Edit-

As of right now, I really am not even considering OCing.

 

-Edit 2-

Thank you for the help everybody! 

 

-Edit 3-

I am using USD, sorry. Also, I plan to use 2 monitors.
