Best build for my budget for gaming.

Hello, i want to build a gaming computer for upcoming games like witcher 3 and gta 5, this will be my first custom computer, so i am a complete noob. What components do you recommend? I already have my monitor and OS taking care of. Thanks

How much do you have? I am guessing you don't plan to overclock either.

Go for this then. It is set up to be future proofed.. You can eventually add a 4790k if you ever need it, and you can throw in another 980 for sli with the included PSU in the future if you want too.

I would get a little extra storage and also I think that the i7 would be a good pick up, games like the witch are going to be really cpu demanding and with directX12 coming out it means that games are going to use the cpu much more effeciently with the gpu and more cores are starting to be used in games. You could put a bigger budget into the case if you want as there is a bit extra in the budget.
