I am wanting a gaming pc that can run most games on ultra like bf4, titanfall, and bioshock infinite and those are just examples, I would also want it to be able to record and edit videos I do not need a keyboard, mouse, monitor, and os thanks and my budget is 1500$ max
 


Eh... The memory is a bit overkill (expensive and too much) and the H60 cooler won't allow for a high overclock, but overall a fairly good build. I would do something more like the build below.

Thanks for your response and I think your right about the memory if anything I'll just buy another 8gb later if needed

 


that's what I thought, however I just put 16GB in just to be safe since I don't know how much video editing he is going to do.
