I want to build 1000$ gaming pc that can play Battlefield4 max setting at 1080p, I want to have a GTX 770 in my build (no need to overlock). Ideally would like to get 770 or better card (need a monitor). Hope you guys can help me, thanks a lot.
PS: I prefer intel CPU

Edit: Just saw you edited your post, taking out the SSD lets you go with an i5 build like Francisco's.

Or keep the GTX760 and be under budget.
 

Can I use a intel core i5 4570 with the GTX 770 ?

 
You can, but you lose the ability to overclock, and will be even more over budget:

Why over budget ? This CPU is cheaper and I don't need to over lock my pc.

I don't think you can get much better for $1000... Slap the monitor Transmaniacon said and you're good to go.
 


You said how about a i5-4570 and a GTX 770, even with a slightly cheaper CPU, the faster GPU brings up the cost. You could do the i5-4570 and 760, but in my opinion the FX-6300/8320 with a 770 would be the best bet.
