750 USD Build

[nick5530]

Build me a 750 USD pc on pcpartpicker please?

Main uses will be gaming. 

I could end up having more money, however I might only have this amount so I want to see what I can get for this money.

Bringing any parts from existing/older build?  Need a LCD, mouse, keyboard?

No parts are coming from an older build. I don't need a mouse, keyboard, or monitor.

What monitor will you use?

[Mark77]

Looks good DRM.  I'd stretch another $50-$100 into that budget if possible and upgrade to a Z board, go with practically any SSD brand other than OCZ, and maybe do a "k" CPU.

Could you build me one with another 50-100 integrated into the build. I'm not 100% sure what the budget would be and $750 is the worst case scenario?

Either a 1080p monitor, or I might use a 720p tv for a while.

actually the ocz 150 series mostly fixed the cache problem with the 100 series and has one of the best 4K read/writes of budget ssd

This should get you by at 1080P for the next 3 years or so at pretty decent settings. (At 1080P or 720P you'll be getting ultra settings for the next 4+ years at least, but in case you're ever planning on upgrading to 4K that CPU won't fare too well in games at such high settings.)

fairly sure an fx 6300 will bottleneck a 390x even at 1080p

It's actually a surprisingly good CPU. It shouldn't be a bottleneck, and considering how powerful that card is, and how he' stunning at 1080P, the minimal bottleneck will do essentially nothing anyway.
