Building a gaming PC 1500$ Budget

That pc will do fine, but rather get a i5-4670K. More value for money. Also, you might want to consider a Carbide Series Air 540 cube case. It has very good airflow and plenty of room for expansion. Also, if you get a Radeon HD 7770 or higher, You will be able to do triple monitor setups, and it comes with some free games.

Do you live near a microcenter ?


Look at newegg motherboard and memory combo, you save 50$

2x Hd 7970 should be fine for 3x1080p

And decide between an air-cooler or custome watercooling kit.
I would not recommend an aio-watercooler.

Nzxt 530(case) is going to be released soon.

I agree. This is the best build for the buck.

First off, everyone is recommending the 4670k, it's only slightly better than the 3570k in most situations, but for an extra $50. Go with the 3570k, better for gaming and overcooking, because it has an 85% performance increase over the 4670k in GPU clock speed (650 > 350). The CPU cooler I chose for you is an EXTREMELY popular and a nice choice for some overclocking, as it is cheap, and performs better than some closed-loop liquid coolers. The motherboard is probably the number 1 motherboard preferred in the Z77 chipset, and I agree 100% with that. This thing provides it's own mini-cooling system for the chip itself, and lots of dust protection. It's reliable, has an SLI option, and includes SATA and USB 3.0. For RAM, all you currently need is 8Gb, and if you're planning on going triple monitor in the future, you may need to upgrade to 12 or even 16Gb. This RAM is highly-used efficient RAM that will more than get the job done. For hard drive storage, there is a 128Gb SSD boot drive for your OS and frequently used applications, as well as a WD Caviar Blue drive for all of your other games and storage needs. The GPU I chose is your 780 WINDFORCE EDITION (Supremely EPIC) has a lot of power and will be able to run any games in the future on ultra settings, and on some games MAX while maintaining 60 FPS. I would usually recommend the Geforce 680 or 770, but you got a nice budget! So, you can crossfire these puppies in the future. Case is preference, but if you're going SLI in the future, I would recommend a full tower case. In this build, I used a very SIMPLE example of a nice case with nice internal features but a plain exterior look. To power this sexy THANG we are going to need at least 441W, with headroom 550W, and since you want to SLI in the future, we'll bump it up to 700W. It's semi-modular with all your cable management needs, and I GOT A GREAT DEAL ON NEWEGG SO DO IT. Optical drive is just your standard ole thang. And I didn't put it in the build but get Windows 7! DO NOT GET 8!!

Just no

Not a bad build but I would rather go for a ASUS motherboard. Asrock has been known to not be terribly reliable.

Who told you ASRock isn't reliable?

Its one of the most reliable motherboard brands besides Gigabyte and ASUS.
Most of the builds suggested here are equivalent CPU paired up with Extreme4. It has won many awards due to its sheer durability and overclocking potential and is highly reliable.

Look, there will be faulty pieces of hardware in every company, but they can be replaced.
