I am looking to build a gaming pc to play on high settings on games simmilar to bf4 etc.
My budget is 900
I'm thinking more of a AMD CPU but I'll change if you guys think it would make a difference
Budget needs to include monitor mouse ,keyboard and OS ,(monitor preference 24inch 1080p)
the most important aspect is gaming but if it had a pretty good audio performance that would be great to

You can later on add a CPU cooler for overclocking, and an SSD for blazing fast OS.
Let me know what you think, and also if you can strech your budget over the 900$ limit.
