$700 to $800 Gaming PC Budget

[thy_brandon]

I am building a Gaming PC for around 600 to 700 dollars budget which will also need a operating system, if you could give me any suggestions for a build please post it below, and I would like a upgrade-able motherboard, and stay with the Intel series/nvidia geforce.

Thankyou for any feedback you can provide.

can I go with a nvidia instead of radeon never owned one, and always stuck with nvidia.

 

[BadActor]

Sure. It will have to be a GTX 960 as the 970 really isn't in your budget.
