I do not need a mouse, monitor, or keyboard. I will be using it for games such as BF4, WOW, and Star Wars: TOR. I do not need an OS.

Memory speed doesn't help for gaming. Powercolor doesnt have good quality. You can overclock to the top turbo speed for i5 intel chips on Z77. Yes you can get a better power supply like the XFX but I was trying to stay under budget.
