I want to build a PC for less than $750 dollars (preferably less), that can play every game at 40+ fps @1080p, very high quality (or ultra if possible)

Do you need monitor/OS/peripherals? Or just straight up computer parts. If you need monitor/OS, etc, then it will be hard to achieve what you're looking for for $750, but without it might get close.

Okay, so I got the build to $774 with a GTX 770, which will play almost anything except the most intense games (such as Crysis 3) at max or very close to max settings for 1080p while still maintaining 60+ fps for the most part. The only one I've had any issue in my own library is Assassin's Creed 4. I can still max out AC4 but it's usually in the 30s or high 20s for fps with my 770. (I have no personal experience with any recent AMD video cards so I'm not sure how they stack up, but I'm sure a comparable AMD card is fine, such as the 280x)

If you absolutely have to be under $750, then you need to step this build down to a GTX 760, which won't run most modern games at max settings 40+ even at 1080p(you'll have to drop it down to medium/low), which is why I stuck with the 770 even though it's a little bit beyond the budget.
