First gaming PC

[Rafaelm03]

Hey guys,  I have been doing some research on building a gaming PC but I'm afraid of buying the wrong parts so I need you help 

 My budget is $700 USD 

 

I looking for the parts to be mostly red if possible 

 

Thanks a lot for your help!

Wait for the r9 480 for $200, and use the iGPU for the time being.

One thing I forgot, I need it to be wireless, any recommendation? Or should I go with a USB adapter?  

I think I'm going to go with this build, and I'm going to wait for the r9 480 to come out

 that should do well is expensive but is not green and should do very well.

I like @herman mcpootis's build.  If I could recommend a good red case though, it'd be something from the Phantom line.  Worth it if you can spend a little more.

Also the newer Corsair CX models are actually recommendable, and can shave a few $$$ off the build.  Plenty of juice for the RX 480.
