So I've set myself a budget which is $1250 for the PC and the other things too. I want to run games very smoothly I will not go over my budget. Here are the parts I've made. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3GXlJ If anyone can tell me if this is fine than I'm open for comments.I will not overclock this pc build. Can this setup also run BF4 , DayZ , Crysis 3 , Bioshock, etc.. smoothly and fast? Please let me know :)

650w should be enough for any setup, just make sure it is certified and good brand (Corsair for example), you can get an SSD like huskersforever said, but that will only optimize load times rather than the actual fps of the game, that's about it


Looks good, I highly recommend getting a solid state drive, at least for your OS and some of your commonly used programs/games ~120gb samsung will run you 90 bucks. It is worth every penny.

Well chosen if you ask me, i can see you have some kidn of experience picking up parts, the 8350 will give you solid game performance, so will the 770, what i would change is RAM to Ripjaws or something like that clocked at 1600 MHz, the difference between them and 1866 are really not that important, and maybe get a better PSU since your CPU will consume a solid ammount of energy
Now for the extra parts...dat keyboard tho, why so expensive? i guess you like gaming stuff but in my view is not really important, same for mouse...you could buy a much better GPU if you cheapen the mouse and keyboard to standart and not gaming
 


I always considered that , might put that into thought.
 


Haha , I love gaming and look to game in a nice experience, believe it or not but that is pretty cheap for gaming setup (keyboard, mouse , mousepad). And thank you very much I will put the ripjaws as ram and put the PSU to maybe 650w? 😀

He may want more multitasking performance? it's not like the 8350 will have problems running any kind of games, i have a 6300 (a weakling compared to the 8350) and it can run any game i throw at it with solid performance, GPU is something you should worry about more, and he has that covered too
 
Yeah, I multitask and I know that 8350 can run games great plus it is cheaper than the i5 , so I'm ok with the 8350 over the i5 :) The GeForce GTX 770 2gb is great for me aswell :)
