Hello,
I am building a gaming in the next 2 weeks and my budget is no more than $2200 with monitor, ios, gaming keyboard, mouse and headset. I will be doing some moderate over clocking. I was thinking maybe to fit in a 780 but not sure. I will be using it for gaming, YouTube and surfing the Web. Any recommendations?

I included the OS and monitor but left the peripherals for you to decide. You can use the extra $200 or so for that

The R9 290 is cheaper than the gtx 780 and perform about the same.

I included an ssd for your OS, programs and some games. You can drop it to a 120gb if you want to save a bit of cash

Also included a cooler, which you can leave out if you are not overclocking for now
