I like nash's first build but there are a few things I would change. I would change the 8350 to 8320. The 8320 can be overclocked to 8350 speeds, thus save $40. The RAM is OK but you can find equally good RAM for a cheaper price. G Skill RipJaws DDR3-1600 is about $20 cheaper and there isn't a performance sacrifice. The Antec Basiq PSU is a decent PSU, but I would change it to a Seasonic S12 or M12 520 or 620 PSU.

If you are able to fit it in your budget, a 270x or a 760.
