I want a build for a gaming pc that will play any modern game on ultra with some good frames. My budget is 2000-2500
If you can provide a parts list that would be great

do you need peripherals, speakers, monitor, keyboard, mouse, OS?
do you want a big case or a small case?
noise important? if so, how important?
What type of monitor setup do you want?

 

[Grooger]

Oops I accidently pressed solve and no just the raw build

 

[Grooger]

Noise is not an issue and just one I'll be running one monitor with 1080p

[Grooger]

Is 550w enough for that 780 Ti?

 

[187Flatliner]

yes

 

[Grooger]

I don't plan on overclocking the CPU right away. Should I remove the water cooler and go for a better case?

ADD A CASE

 

[187Flatliner]

honestly that case is pretty badass, not aesthetically pleasing in some departments...if you want a windowed one then go for it........the case was my hardest part of my build.

 

[Grooger]

To be honest, I'll probably go with the 750D, it's a beast of a case

 

[187Flatliner]

this is my actual build here.

spending $2000 or $2500 you'll get a gorgious system... and to limit yourself to playing in 1080p is a bit of a waste... so i added a a 1440p monitor to the system. Bringing the total from 2k up to 2500. If you insist on gaming in 1080p, i can get you a more cost conciencious build, which will run almost $1000 less, that will meet your goals. However, this is a pretty badass system. And close to what i would spend 2500 on if i was going to spend that on a new system
