Alright, so I have about $1400 to kill, I need a gaming PC. I don't need a case. I want the best bang for buck, but also something that looks good and is reliable. I have some builds in mind already, just wanted to see what you guys can come up with. Thanks.

What case do you have? Rersolution you will play on? Games you play? any color preference?

Full ATX, I want to game in 4K, I play all types of games.

you'd need dual 980ti for that IMHO and this will push it above budget....you should consider 1440p like my monitor it's much better than 4K for gaming.

you,re dead set on 4K? maybe i can tweak a ride that could do it well for 1400$...

 

EDIT: this would be 4K...it will be a bloody hot machine though and some games won't support crossfire they won,t run that well at 4K on a single of these cards...
