$2,500 Intel Build

[Yetti7]

I have a cap of $2,500 that i can't go over and I'm looking for a high end gaming intel build with dual monitors, have mouse and keyboard. I can get the i7 4770k for $250 at micro center close to my house and am very fond of the Thor v2 White edition with the Corsair H100i. Any suggestions?

Let me just warn you that with dual monitors you won't be able to see most of your targets in FPS... You should go single or triple monitors

Only one monitor is going to be used for gaming, the other will run my background applications or keep my web browser open.

So, monitor, mouse, keyboard, all included in the $2500, or just the PC itself?

 

[Yetti7]

Just monitors i have a mouse and keyboard i like i just can't go over the $2,500 cap.

The build is only for gaming or also edit/render?

Mostly gaming, wont be doing much editing or rendering. Maybe down the line i might. I really like the look of the Thor v2 white and the h100i though so id like to have those as an option. Plus like i said i can get the 4770k for $250 at micro center.

Adding $250, still less than $2500
