Alright, I'm looking to build a new AMD gaming PC with deals that are becoming available in the next few days for Black Friday. I already have the operating system, monitor, keyboard, and mouse, now I just need to find the best deals for core components that I can find.

I want my PC to be able to run games like Skyrim and Arma III on High quality if at all possible. I don't want to cause more trouble than I already am by asking so much of internet strangers, but I'd love to get an ASUS or Gigabyte motherboard as they have the best reliability. Also, I'd like to have 1TB of space on the hard drive, unless you have an explanation as to why that is not the best idea. I'm not against running crossfire if necessary. The maximum amount I have to spend on this build is $800, but I'd prefer to only spend $750 if at all possible, the bare minimum I want to spend will be $600. Obviously the most expensive part will be the video card, but I have no idea what deal is the best right now!

Hopefully this thread could be a collection of builds that may be able to help many people coming to ask the same question.

Thanks guys, this is a wonderful community!

Finally, if you fellows have somewhere I can go to learn everything I need to about gaming PCs so I don't need to ask in the future, that would be great!

I should also state that Cyber Monday deals are fine too, I'm just looking for the best I can get.

Do you plan on overclocking your cpu?
Anyways, i recommend this build:

NZXT Source 210 case
G.Skill Ripjaws X 1600mhz 8gb RAM (make sure you get dual channel -2 sticks like 2 4gb ram sticks)
Corsair CX600M
AMD 8320 (Microcenter has this for ONLY $100 in store only from friday to monday)
GeForce GTX 760
Western Digital Blue 1TB 7200 RPM hdd (really, any reliable brand 7200 rpm hdd will do)
24x CD/DVD optical drive
Asrock 970 Extreme3 R2.0 motherboard (a better high end board would be an Asrock 990FX Extreme9 for amazing overclocking and up to 3 way SLI

You should be able to get all this for $700 before taxes with some deals from MicroCenter's black friday sales and deals
