I need help coming up with a gaming pc build. My budget is a little over $650, and i plan on playing games like battlefield 4, and other games like this in 1080p high or ultra and want to get good fps with smooth performance. I plan on using my 1080p hd tv as a monitor, and i have a windows 7 os disc laying around.

This build will last you quite some time, and the 7870 XT is still a high-tier card and will play almost every game at ultra/max.
