I don't need specific builds, more like advice on cheapest cpu (amd or intel), minimum gpu, psu advice based on cpu, gpu, 8gb ram, and one monitor, and i don't know if i should air cool or liquid cool. I know there are good quality air coolers from Noctura but i found a liquid cooler from Cooler Master for like $30.

Thanks for all the help. BTW this will be my first build.

I agree, you need an R9 280x (which I recommend since BF4 is AMD optimised, and has Mantle) or GTX 770.

However, you might be dissapointed. I enjoy BF3 a lot more than BF4.
BF4 is kinda full of bugs, bad netcode, and the visuals are pretty bad. It`s really hard to see the enemies 80% of the time.

i5 4690, k if u wanna oc, non k if not, dont take amd
z 87/97 board from asus if u wanna oc. any other asus board if not
8gb ram 1866 cl 9
r9 280x or gtx 770, I would take 770, but its more expensive.
700+W psu from antec,seasonic,corsair, xfx
24+inch 1080p IPS pannel screen from asus,benq
Any liquid cooler, hyper evo, or a fat Noctua cooler.

You don't need at much as the guy above me said. I would recommend

- i5-4430 CPU
- $50 mobo
- 8gbs 1600mhz dual channel RAM
-GTX 760 or R9-270x
- Any case should work, just make sure it's big enough
- Make sure the PSU is more that 500 watts and at least 80+ bronze certified
- Your choice of storage
- I don't know what else you're going to put in the HDD or SSD

I cant really agree with a Gtx760 or R9 270x
i have the i5 2500
Antec 620W
Biostar Tz68+
8gigs ram
R9 280x

and this lets met play on ultra with 2x AA @ 60fps think Yingda Wang is more correct the 770 or 280x should be the choice in Gpu
