Hi I have been asking on the forums a lot lately and have had many answers and have added them all together to make this build. I want to run titanfall and many other games that have been out recently. The link is http://pcpartpicker.com/user/tysterg/saved/41Gp if you have any recommendations I gladly appreciate it. I will be buying the parts for the computer in april.
 
For $26 more you can have a solid pc:
