I have no idea how much you want to spend but this is a good one for under $1,000.
 


Lol this doesn't include the price of 8gb of RAM
 


Must be because I've been awake all night.

Best I could do. If you want FX 8350's performance, just OC it to 4.0GHz. It's a highly overclockable CPU, the board is also good at it.
 


I was planning on playing Battlefield 4, Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, League of Legends, and Arma 3.
 
You won't beat this for $902

What about this build:

CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K Quad-Core

GPU: Nvidia GTX 660 Superclocked Edition

MOBO: Asus P8Z77-V LK Intel Z77 DDR3 LGA 1155 Motherboard

Ram: Corsair Vengeance Blue 8 GB (2X4 GB) PC3-12800 1600mHz DDR3 240-Pin SDRAM
 


The AMD build you already made is good. It may struggle a little with a game like WoW but it will play the rest of the games just fine. If you want to go the Intel route and you are not overclocking Get an i5-4440 instead with a H81 chipset motherboard, that will allow you to get the GTX 760, since a faster GPU matters more for performance than a slighly Faster CPU at stock that you won't even overclock.
 
Since the 4670k is no longer on sale, this is the best you can do under $900

Could you do a different build without windows because I already have it! :)

 
Twice the storage, ssd for windows, and a better case.
