PC Build Recommendation

[regan1214]

Hey guys,

After dealing with Harvey Norman and being stuck with nothing but an expensive paper weight I decided I might as well just build a PC myself. (Yes this will be my first time so I'm open to any and all suggestions)

The pc will be used for gaming FO4/GTA etc etc Looking for a machine to run high graphics 60FPS

Budget is currently around $1800-2500 AUD

^^ Is a rough build I looked at - as I said all suggestions more than welcomed!

Thanks,

Regan.

Looks good. But I wouldn't waste $55 on a locked CPU. Either switch to the K model or drop that cooler.
And those Australian prices, ouch.
