Budget Range:$1188

Use: gaming (bf4 multiplayer, assassins creed unity, farcry 4) on high-ultra settings with minimum of 55 fps on high (based on bf4 while not in large battles) assasins creed unity and fc4 just need to be playable on high settings atleast (when they come out of cause

Are you buying a monitor: no. I have a Benq 24" RL2455HM 1920x1080 1ms (I believe its 60ghz which means I can only have a max of 60fps while playing

Parts to Upgrade: ALL ITS A NEW BUILD!!!

Do you need to buy OS: yes windows 8.1 oem 64 bit preferably

Preferred Website: mwave, pccg and msy. OR AUSTRALIAN ONLY MUST HAVE GOOD WARANTYS

Location: Barossa south Australia

Parts Preferences: prefer Sapphire Radeon R9 280X Dual-X OC 3GB $320 on pccg (but maybe out o' price range :( I prefer Intel cpu. aslong as it can do what I want it to do. also if an ssd is not out of the price range ($58 for 60gb Kingston ssd)

case preference. (in order form most to least preferred) Thermaltake Chaser A31 Black Tower $99,
Thermaltake Black Urban T21 Mid Tower Chassis $95 , Thermaltake Urban R21 Mid Tower Chassis $75 (unless you can find a case of the same style I want no other case than 1 of these.)

Overclocking: hopefully, I will probably need the boost to get my preferred fps of 55 MINIMUM (when not in massive wars on ultra). but depends on wether you think its worth it or not.

SLI or Crossfire: It would be good so I can upgrade in the future.

Your Monitor Resolution: resolution (I think its 1920x1080

Additional Comments: I would prefer it if I didn't need to do any bios updates on my mobo or anything that will make use complicated (I am getting it put together for $70) and I am suggesting the use of an Intel Core i5 4690 3.5GHz 6MB.

please make sure if I need a cooler, its there. and please ask for additional information, so this is as accurate as possible!!!

I will of course need all essentials eg optical drive ($20ish) ram (maybe g. skill) hhd (western digital preferably) etc

if you can give it 60fps ABSOLUTE MINIMUM that would be great but un-needed. and psu that will give it all the power it will need.

this needs to be a physically good quality build because I can't afford to get specific parts replaced!

needs be able to produce sound as well when plugged into speakers (if it doesn't come as standard) DO NOT add speakers to the build I already have badass headset.

would also like it if it had fan control (or if there's free online software do not worry about that, unless It comes with mobo already)

do not use parpicker for this build because I live in auss and u cant get many things on PP

ask me for additional info so this build is accurate!

and last of all. sorry this is a long post but this is very important, you guys are just volunteering to help so don't feel pressured to finish helping me.

THANKS
