Gaming System Around $1000

Fehim010 · Mar 9, 2014

Hi, I am looking to build my first gaming system to hold up all new titles, and also to be able to edit gopro videos. I would really like double screens but thinking about using my tv and another lcd screen under my tv. I would need operation system maybe windows 8 oem 64bit. I can go just a little over $1000.

Screen can wait because I have a really good tv for right now.

any help would be awesome thanks..

This is the best I could do if you wanted to overclock the CPU you will need to spend a little more money

Yea, am definitely willing to spend more money on the CPU such as Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor, and also the video card like such as MSI GeForce GTX 770 2GB Video Card.

jonoj96 · Mar 9, 2014

This has both the i5 4670k and gtx 770

Any opinions? or changes that you would do?

Fehim010 · Mar 9, 2014

Sorry didn't see u posted already hahaha...
Would any extra storage help such as Samsung 840 Evo 120GB 2.5" solid State Disk?

jonoj96 · Mar 9, 2014

A SSD will increase boot times and loading times for any program installed on it a lot of people install windows on it so the computer boots faster

Fehim010 · Mar 9, 2014

Ok cool, yea I would definitely like that. What do you think about changing the motherboard to Motherboard: Asus Z87-Plus? What that be a big change from ASRock z=Z87 Extreme4? Sorry for all these questions am new to this building my own computer.

jonoj96 · Mar 9, 2014

Asus Z87 plus is also a good motherboard and if you wanted to get a SSD the one you said is good

Fehim010 · Mar 9, 2014

Sweet!! Thanks a lot, after the changes would I have to change the power supply or the case?

jonoj96 · Mar 9, 2014

No the power supply should be fine and the case is more your personal preference

Fehim010 · Mar 9, 2014

Ok thanks a lot man..
