Advice/Suggestions

[ZzachBbrown]

Hello. 

 

My name is Zach, I just turned 20. I am new to computer building and am looking for some guidance of the sort. I've been watching Linus' videos for over a year or so and figured this would be the best place to come for seeking advice and guidance with out the harshness or condescending tone of every other website on the internet . I'm pretty good with my hands and am a handy person, so the physical building part im no worried about. I've done enough research to feel confident enough to build. I'm looking to build a tower for gaming, with a budget of around $1000 US, i can spend a tiny bit more if needed. What I'm looking for exactly is some help with picking out hardware. I guess some insight into what I intend to play or do with this PC would be helpful. I would very much like to be able to play titles like H1Z1, Sniper Elite III, Warframe, GTA V and so on, at 60Fps+ on high or ultra settings. Having a Pc capable of doing some nice multitasking would be excellent as well. I've very badly wanted to get into computer building and just messing with computers in general. Having a nice system is really the only thing i desire lately. 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
