I also doubt he would get a bootleged copy of Windows. Always good to get a genuine copy

Why are you suggesting a 3770k? Thats a last generation CPU where as yes it is fast and still good... it's also a bit expensive and overkill for a 13 year olds gaming build.

4670 non k is perfect. he shouldn't be overlocking anyway.

The only reason why I did that was that it was a pretty good deal for the price. I also wanted to focus more into the GPU than the CPU really, and get a good psu.

but you didn't, you focused more on the cpu by going overboard. Not a big deal, I'm just saying save the man some money and make the pc 13-15 year old non-clocker-able.

For gaming you will not notice any difference between the i5-4670 and the i5-4430, and it's quite a bit cheaper. If you need to buy a monitor also, get a R9 270x graphics card instead of the GTX 770. Enjoy!

I just put this together fast and thought the i7 would be fine and that was the cheapest.

Well we are here to help.

Your welcome

Also you can spend $18 over budget for a GTX 770

Will the one with the i7 and the 760 be able to run day z standalone on max settings?

I would honestly go with the one with the 770 or the 760 and the i5 because the 660 was kinda under kill but the i7 was overkill and the i5 build should get the max settings

I'll post the best build for the money here in a second.

Which one agrees with everyone

You can't go wrong with this build and has room for plenty of upgrades:

Honestly (no offense) better than any of the other builds here.

I am saying just ask one each one of them the component which they think is best and make a build. Most are saying that i7 would be over kill for 13 year old kid and are saying i5 would be best and most of them agree with GTX 750 Ti. That's it and just tell a motherboard and ram guys simple. The OS can be found anywhere and the DVD rom doesn't matter that much. As far as HDD just buy a one with 1 TB space and 5200rpm simple.
