I know i asked for a new build just yesterday but I didnt include some stuff so im asking again.

Budget Range: $1000 or lower

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, video editing, surfing the internet

Are you buying a monitor: Need one , please include in the build. (if possible i would like a BenQ)

Parts to Upgrade: Not reusing or upgrading anything, need a new build.

Do you need to buy OS: Need an OS , Dont know if Windows 7 or Windows 8 is better

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Does not matter as long as the parts are in stock.

Location: City, State/Region, Country - Escondido, CA, USA

Parts Preferences: AMD if possible

Overclocking: Yes

SLI or Crossfire: Dont know

Your Monitor Resolution: Dont have one..

Additional Comments: BenQ Monitor and good mouse and keyboard if possible and can run BF4, LoL, Dota 2, DayZ

And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Current computer overheats and shuts off when gaming

Thanks once again!
