$1100 Gaming PC

[TheDapperWalrus]

Can someone help me chose parts to build a $1000-$1100 Gaming PC? I want to be able to get at least 60+ fps on all games including BF4 and I want to use an i7 CPU. I already have a monitor and keyboard + mouse, i just need the pc.

Cheaper, conventional cooler and a cheaper PSU with less power (500W is enough) and he is able to buy an SSD. Nowadays building a PC without SSD is a really really bad idea.

This is a very similar build to mine. The i5/GTX 970 combo is fantastic for gaming, and all other parts are top quality.
