Hi,

I want to build a new computer in order to play BF4. I don't know a lot about components, so I need your feedbacks to say if this build will be good for it. I also uses it to work since I'm a student. So here's what I would buy. The price is about 1875$ on Newegg. I still don't have make it on Partpicker, so it's not the cheapeast for this particular build. What do you think ?

Case: Corsair Vengeance C70

CPU: Intel Core i5 4670K

Cooler: Corsair Hydro H100i w/ Corsair SP120 Quiet Edition fans

Motherboard: Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H

GPU: Gigabyte GTX 770 "Windforce" 2 GB

Power supply: Seasonic G Series 650W

HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 1 TB

SSD: Samsung 840 EVO 250 GB

RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro 8 GB @ 1866 MHz

Okay. Well, in that case. I suggest a Z77 build. If I recall correctly, new Haswell chips doesn't really offer a significant performance upgrades that would want to make users with an Ivy Bridge build to switch over.

Check these articles
A review of the flagship Haswell chip: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/core-i7-4770k-haswell-review,3521.html
And the CPU hierarchy chart: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-cpu-review-overclock,3106-5.html

So I recommend these parts:
CPU: ://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=70541&vpn=BX80637I53570K&manufacture=Intel&promoid=1258
Mobo: ://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=70902&vpn=Z77%20Extreme4&manufacture=ASRock&promoid=1258

The cash you save from these parts could afford you a better power...

The cash you save from these parts could afford you a better power supply, more cooling fans, or more storage, or peripherals. For preference's sake, I'll also throw an HD 7970 http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=67547&vpn=GV-R797OC-3GD&manufacture=Gigabyte&promoid=1258

It's got plenty of graphics performance, you're sure to max out almost any game you play on 1080p and with AMD's Never Settle promotion, you get to choose 3 free games for free.
