Can someone help me pick out parts for my build? I am interested in having the best gaming computer possible with my budget. My budget is 700-750 but could potentially go up just a little bit more if completely necessary. To make things harder, I need a monitor included in this cost that takes capability of my graphics card. I do not need a keyboard, mouse, or speakers. I believe I can cut out a CD drive if I can install an OS through a flash drive, which I am pretty sure I can. Recommendations? If it is possible I wish to purchase everything from the same store but could split it up if I came out better cost wise. Thanks!

Fill out the following information and I don't mind putting something together for you.

Budget:
More specific use (what games, what programs):
Planned time until purchase:
Do you need an Operating System?:
Do you have any specific preferred components?:
Do you need a sound or wireless card?:
Do you want stock cooling or do you plan on overclocking?:
Do you need a monitor? mouse? keyboard?:
Zip code/location? (Shipping costs):
What are your preferences in case style? (lights, flashy, dull, etc)
Are you planning to use multiple monitors?
Are you looking for upgrade-ability?
Do you have any preferred brands?
Can you reuse any components from an older build?

Is there anything else you think we should know?
