So, I had 562$ and tried getting advice from people on here but it wasnt what I was looking for, so i reached out to a Youtuber friend of mine and he built me this (il be upgrading ram to 8gb soon) http://pcpartpicker.com/p/7FD4ZL he claims and alot of others claim that the build can play BF4 on Ultra High 1080p HD at 30fps, as well as being a 6 core good for slight editing and by slight i mean like i throw a 10 minute video into sony vegas with some text on it and render it out in 720p, however iv had a low spec computer all my life and im not picky when it comes to games, i wont be playing BF4 id rather play Skyrim on high 1280x720 at least, (i already bought the parts btw)also i was wondering how do i remove driver cages to make the graphics cards fit?and one last question. Are mail in rebates 100% guaranteed? this is my first time buying online aswell and id use the rebate money to buy the extra stick of ram :) Please and thank you for whoever responds!

Questions: Is this build good for the games I want to run like Skyrim,various MMOS on high 1280x720 at least?

How do I remove driver cages?

Are mail in rebates 100% guaranteed?

thanks again!

At that resolution you will be fine. You can probably hit 1920x1080 with this on most titles.

The drive cage will likely have a few screws holding it in. There are other cases you could get that would fit a graphics card better, but if you like the looks of that one you will have to find some other place for the hard drive.

Rebates do expire, each individual one will have its own deadline and requirement. How they pay you varies as well. Pre-paid cash cards are becoming more common.
