Okay so here it goes. I am looking to build a gaming machine for about 800 dollars. I'm hoping to make this a good reliable machine for the next few years and with new titles coming out like elder scrolls online and many others I want to skimp in all the right paces to make it perform and play these games with ease.
First time build and on a budget
