Hi! Im going to build a new gaming PC and i dont know what parts i should buy... Im planing to play Starcraft 2 and Star Wars Battlefront EA. And im asking you what parts you would choose for this build. My budget would be $1250 MAX. Note that i already have a copy of Windows so i dont need to buy that ;)!

 

Thanks in advance!
