GTX 780- powerful Graphics card which can play games around max settings

Core I5 4670k- The standard CPU in the $1000 pc gaming, again very fast and powerful and can run games very well and also is overclockable

Motherboard supports a second GTX 780 at the time of upgrade as well as slots for more ram

8GB ram is the sweetspot in gaming pcs currently

850W Gold+ PSU- Very reliable and provides room to add in a second 780 in the future


great priced 23" monitor

Your motherboard already has an ethernet port. No need for anything different. And if you're going to be wired via Cat5e, no need for wireless.

An ethernet cable.
Are you going to be wired to the router, or do you have to do it wireless?
