1000$ Gaming PC

[Ruri_Gokou]

I need help putting together a good PC

The major reason i want to upgrade is because of my CPU right now i am running a I3 530 as well as a ASUS DirectCU II R9 270X 2GB model i will need to upgrade my case and if necessary my GPU.

I will be using my PC for 1080P gaming with one monitor. I do not need any peripherals or windows.

and if possible i would enjoy having a black/blue build. the aim with this build is to be able to play higher end games at a reasonable FPS.

Thanks for your help. 

For case wise im probably getting the Mastercase 5 other then that im free to anything.

How do you like this? The Mastercase is a bit pricey for your budget but you can accomodate for it by switching to 8GB RAM

pretty nice but is it absolutely necessary that i get a new GPU or can i hold out on that a bit longer?

The difference is quite significant, more than twice the graphical horsepower and an RX 480 or GTX 1060 is all you need to max out 1080p today.
