I would like a gaming pc which around $1400 (cannot go above $1500). I really dont have any preferences, except no AMD CPU's i am OK with i5 or i7 and I dont care if it is nvidia or AMD for GPU
Please post a prospective build list, and your monitor setup.
For gaming, build around a i5-4670K and a Z87 based motherboard.
