So I'm going to need a monitor, and a gaming PC build that altogether won't cost any more than $800. I want something that can get me as good as possible graphics. Really at the moment I mostly want to play games like Team Fortress 2, Minecraft, League of Legends, and Skyrim. I don't need super powerful graphics, nor do I want low quality. Like I said, I can't spend any more than $800. I've also never built a PC before so this is all new to me.
 
i am assuming that you live in US

have fun :)
