List 1: http://i.imgur.com/nqHtu6T.png

List 2: http://i.imgur.com/3McssYb.png (only thing changed was the GPU and CPU)

She chose these and i think they are good. She wanted me to save two part lists because she wants to save at least a few bucks and might not go as hardcore as the parts on the first list, especially in terms of gaming, yet she just wants a gaming PC that'll last her for a few good years (3-4 years) that plays next-gen games and either medium or high settings (preferably high settings) with good framerate. She still hasn't decided on the parts she'll go for, she just wants some opinions on the specs she chose for both of them and if they are compatible with each other. She'll be using her HDTV as her monitor as well. She's also waiting for Windows 10.

try to buy something which is called BUNDLE.... in there you will save a lot of money than parts by parts.... the most important thing is the processor. try to buy a 1155 or 1150 board or processor then buy a 1piece of 4gb RAM, one monitor, video is built in so you need the case and accessories...

it will be usable then upgrade it.

try to find something else or you shouldnt buy Video card for while... Focus on your processor because from my own experience I bought a 4gb video card even though I have 2gb built in video... I bought i5 instead of i7 processor.. I regret it....
