I know there are a lot of posts like this but can someone build me a nice gaming pc around the price range in the title? I would like for it to be able to play games like farcry3, skyrim, dayz, and maybe some newer games like batman arkham knight if possible to do so in this price range. I would appreciate if someone could give me a build. Maybe a 600 dollar build and then a 700 dollar build? Then I can decide from those. Thanks in advance!

I will now give a rational.

CPU) The AMD Cpus deliver the best bang for the buck over intel CPUs at this price range/

CPU COOLER) Stock, just to save money. you can buy one in the future to overclock.

MOTHERBOARD) Very popular 970 chipset motherboard

RAM) Just one stick so you can upgrade in the future.

STORAGE) No SSD for this price range, unless you want to put a SSD and remove the HDD

GRAPHICS CARD) Best bang for the buck.

CASE) Cheap solid case

PSU) Not the best psu, but it works.

Comments) For $600 build, use this one, if u want a os downgrade the graphics card to a GTX 750, GTX 750ti, or a R7 260X. For $700 w/ os, just add the os. For $700 w/o os, Upgrade the graphics card to a GTX 770
