I have a $1500-$1700 budget. I don't plan on overclocking and I plan on running L4D2, Civ 5, Dayz, Battlefield and Rome 2 (when it is properly patched)
So far for my build this is what I've decided on:
Corsair Obsidian Series 550D or Corsair C70 case
Monitor: ASUS VX228H Black 21.5" 1ms response time (I plan on using this monitor for console gaming as well)
HDD: WD BLACK SERIES WD2003FZEX 2TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
Video card: Gigabyte Windforce GTX 760 (By the time I build it I will probably be buying a GTX 860)
PSU: CORSAIR CXM series CX600M 600W ATX12V v2.3 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Modular Active PFC Power Supply
Memory:Team Vulcan 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3 1600
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-Z87X-UD3H LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K
CPU Cooler: Thermaltake Frio (Any options that will be smaller and fit better are wanted)
OS: Microsoft Windows 7
Anti virus: KASPERSKY lab Anti-Virus 2013 - 1 PC OEM (I am very interested in other cheaper or better antivirus options including free ones)
Optical Drive: ASUS Black Blu-ray Drive
Cables :2x Link Depot HDMI-2-HDMI 6 ft. HDMI TO HDMI A/V Cable - OEM
What do you guys think? Suggestions for better stuff for the price are greatly appreciated
