So I've decided to crossover to pc gaming this being my first build. Which being I am a total noob when it comes to all this stuff. I'm most likely going to use it for an all purpose computer, gaming, internet browsing, movies, programs (photoshop, etc.) I already have a monitor, keyboard and mouse so don't need that in the budget. Do need an OS though, which being Windows 8. I want to be able to play BF4 with at least medium settings with good fps, though I'd like high setting with that and other games. I'd like to have a chassis with a blue light (if you know what I mean), but if not it's ok.hmm.. I can be able to go over my budget, but not a whole lot, maybe another 100. I'm going to try to build this in between 2weeks - end of September. Thanks everyone. :)
