$800 AUD Build

[Firthy]

Hey guys, selling my computer and wanting to build a new one that can play games comfortably, like CS:GO, GTA, Watch dogs, those sort of games. 

I want to spend around the $800 AUD mark, but if there is something a couple dollars more that worth it chuck is in, i have more then the $800 but thats the goal.

Thanks!

It is extremely hard to ask for a "gaming" pc for $800 aud, (thats 600 USD). For games for CS:GO any pc could basically run that... however GTA V lands on the other end of the spectrum, i have made a basic outline but really you should do your own research, you need to understand every part of a computer and make your own decisions on how much to spend and what you need. I feel if you could push your budget to maybe say, $1300 ish you would see a big performance increase. I am building my own pc atm and have been saving a long time for it, (i7 7700k, gtx 1070 ect). I dont see the point in making an $800 build but you do you man. 

$800 (excluding windows 10)
