Hi. can someone build me a pc for $1500NZD or under. I have already the noctua nh-D14 cooler and the hard drives so you can cross those off the list of things you need to add to the list! But I'm pre-ordering battlefield one and would like a computer that is better than a console and can play at above normal graphics (if the pc can't then thats fine) and thats it. Thanks

Best I could do. I've given you a Z170 motherboard so you can have the possible option of upgrading to an unlocked CPU and overclocking it with the NH-D14.
