Alright, I've had some feedback on my $800 gaming pc and these are the updated specs. This pc will cost me $842 to be precise, but from what I've heard I should be able to play all current games with bumped up graphics. Games like ARMA 3, BF4, and Crysis. I just want to let everybody know, in case they want to show me a better comp, I already have a mid-tower case and two dvd readers, so I won't need those.

Specs:

Motherboard: ASRock 970 EXTREME4 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

Cpu: AMD FX-8320 8 core (I plan to overclock) - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

Ram: G.Skill Ripjaws 8gb - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

GPU: EVGA GTX 770 2gb - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

Power Supply: RAIDMAX RX-735AP 735W - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

Hard Drive: Western Digital 1TB 7200 RPM - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA2W0...

I'm also going to get Windows 7 64 bit ($100) and this monitor (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...) All together this setup will cost me a little over $1k so I really want to get the best bang for my buck. Also, people keep recommending me AMD GPUs. I don't have a problem with AMD cpus, but I've heard some bad things about their gpus, and I want this PC to last me a while because I won't be able to get a new one in a LONG time. I might be able to upgrade but there is no way I'm going to buy another computer. Any suggestions? Is this a good PC or is there something else I should do?

Save some money and get 1866 mhz ram which actually is faster. ANd for 20 or 30 dollars you may want to upgrade to a 8350 which can get to 5.0 gHz. and a 50 dollar cpu cooler.
