I am very new to building PCs and would like to ask the community what the best option would be. I would be fine with a prebuilt rig that is pretty close to any custom built rig to save the hassle of going through building one. (I have monitor, mouse.... Etc)
I will be hoping to play ganes like planet side 2, bf4 and other next gen games at med-high settings at a good stable 120 fps never dipping bellow 60.
This is what I thought up (I just picked the highest rated parts with very little knowledge as to what I should have picked)
