1400$ pc build

Mnm2364 · Aug 6, 2014

Hey guys, i need a gaming pc build. I already have windows 8, a monitor, keyboard and mouse. My budget is 1400$ CAD. I'd like to be able to play most of today's popular games (Ex: B4, COD, and upcoming games.) Keep in mind that i will be buying from newegg and vuugo. Any advice is welcome, thanks
