Need help for a good gaming PC build that's no more then $1000 preferably less if possible i was looking at this http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=7_1203_124&item_id=062315 but im not sure if it will run the games i want or if its a good buy. ill be playing black ops 2, DayZ, Rust.
So if anyone would be nice enough to post a build that could run those games or if i should just go with the build i linked above.
Thanks

what resolution monitor? even at 1080p, you'll be playing black ops 2 on medium at best.

Are you not able/willing to build your own? That will use a super cheap power supply and motherboard, and the video card basically sucks. Nothing short of a 660 should be used for 1080p gaming in a new computer.

look at tom's hardware budget builds for March and April. give you a start.
 
Yeah, the problem with prebuilt's is that they stack the money into random pointless areas that do nothing for gaming. Like lowrider said, you'll be lucky to get medium around 40 FPS with that. The build below will get you High/Ultra in those games, at 50+ FPS:
