I am new to pc gaming and I have decided to try and build my own desktop as I've heard you get more bang for your buck. I just know next to nothing about computers and I just would like to know what parts to get if I am considering to play most modern games and do lots of multitasking. Thanks for the help guys :)
~Ps. I have a budget of $800 with the monitor~

Would this complete all my school/multitasking/gaming tasks I throw at it on high settings?
 


That build definitely would. What kind of games are you planning on playing though and what kind of multitasking with what programs are you also planning to do?

I play with a lot of people so I'd probably have skype/ts3 running in the back, whatever game I'm playing, music, and maybe 2 tabs open on the internet,

Minecraft
Csgo
GTA
Forza
Call Of Duty
