This is what I managed to get. Also I got a 750w psu in case you ever need to crossfire. Also if you need an SSD, 120 gb is enough really. It doesn't give you faster FPS or better gaming performance. Just faster load times, boot, etc. It really is just a luxury item. Also do you need an OS, optical drive, etc. This build should be able to run Crysis 3 all settings very high, 2X AA 1080P with an average of 50-60FPS.

Edited :) Also this is only $12 over budget.

ain't think he's going crossfire, 2X 290 is kinda.. overkill,so 650 W PSU would be perfect.
