Hello, Im planning to build a gaming pc. But im not sure what components I need.
I would like to play all the latest games on max. settings. I prefer a Nvidia graphics card.
What's the best build atm?
(monitor, mouse and keyboard are not included)

Apologies, prices are in GBP £ but this is the build I'd go for. Upgrade CPU cooler to a Cosair H100i for £30 extra.

MSI Z87 GD65 Gaming is slightly better but a bit more expensive. Not sure of exact differences. Both boards get excellent reviews.

Yeh you don't really need an i7 for gaming. Even then, as games become optimized to utilize more cores, this will make AMD CPUs more attractive due to their lower price points.

GTX 780 is significantly faster than 770 and should be good for a few years based on the current game engines (frostbike, crytek etc).
 
the problem is that italia pc part picker doesnt have i5 4670k so i went with amd fx 8320 8 core this alot better.

The 780 doesn't have that much over a 770 so if you want to save money stay with the 770 or wait until the 790 comes out.
