BACKGROUND:
I have been spending a lot of time researching and collecting data and am planning on building my first computer because I'm over dealing with ****** average consumer retail computers for so long and from seeing amazing builds online.
-I have a ballpark price range of $1,800-%2,200. I don't have the money yet but am planning out how I'm going to get it and need to know how much I actually need.
-I am looking for good quality parts that will allow me to play all my favorite games, especially Skyrim, DayZ, and FPS games like Battlefield 4. I also want to play new and upcoming games. I am trying to stay around $2,000 but am willing to go to $2,500.
-I have a good idea of Hard Drive(+SSD), Optical Drive and Case(Corsair Obsidian Series Mid-Tower Case).
-I also want a GeForce GTX 780 and will probably want 1 or two more 780s eventually, but not any time soon.
-I also want a 4.00 Ghz Intel proccessor.
PROBLEM:
I don't fully know how to pick compatible parts that will do what i want and am having a specifically difficult time looking for a CPU/Ram/Motherboard configuration. Can i use a DDR5 Graphics Card with a DDR3 CPU and RAM?
Any corrections, suggestions, and answers are appreciated!!!
