Hey, I've made my own build with some days research. How good is this? How much FPS would it get in games like:
Aion, WoW, LoL, BF4, Perfect World, Neverwinter, CSS, Perfect World, Titanfall from X fps-X fps?

Also if possible, could you cheap this build to get exactly $1000? and still get the same performance, or if not possible, just a smaallll difference?

Thanks, hope you are able to help me out!
 
That seems like a solid build to me. I'm no expert, but the only thing I'd recommend is going from 8GB RAM to 16. Games are pulling more and more RAM, as the new Ghosts game pulls 6GB, and Star Citizen will pull 8. It'll just help future-proof your rig and keep you from having to spend more money later on.
 
Only changes I would make are the get a better PSU (XFX or Seasonic) and a gtx 770 but that would add $60-$70, not subtract.
Unfortunately, I didn't see any great sales on XFX or Seasonics right now and it is hard to beat the $50 price for a 600w+ psu. The cx series is ok for a budget build but they have low quality capacitors, so are not great for OC. The corsair AX HX etc are all good PSUs tho.

If it were my build, I would throw down an extra $15 for an XFX and another $50 for a gtx 770.

Also, I'm pretty sure that 8gb ram is still the sweet spot for gaming (I have 6GB atm and have no problems gaming on High-Ultra w/ a gtx 760). It will probably be another 2 years before having more than 8 will be even remotely needed.

 
Well, I don't really wanna use much more money.. Can either change some parts if I can get better, but for same price. Also if able, could anyone cheap out this build to 1000$ if possible, or make a new custom build? The best you could think of for this build. I really want a good gaming PC, but not too expensive. I prefer $1000. Maybe even $1050 if needed. It depends on the performance difference.

Hope you are able to help me out!
Thanks :)
 
By no means an expert at this...
I read very mixed reviews on your chosen GPU and MoBo so tried a build with an ASRock and GTX 770. Changed the case to one with plenty of room for the GPU and hopefully airflow/cooling purposes.

This should do everything you want it to and it sets you up for a multi monitor set up if you wanted to. Not the best build but hope it gives you some more ideas.
