Hi guys, I just registered here to see if I could get some answers regarding my need for a gaming PC. I plan to be able to run most next/current gen games 1080p 40 FPS minimum, And 60 on high settings with a bit of tweaking.

I have little to no experience with building PC's but I do have a basic gist of hardware and have used computers since I was 10 years of age. (16 now)
Some things I want to note to make this thorough is that I'll be using wireless as my internet connection so I'm not sure if I need some kind of adapter added.

Okay, My point is that I need someone to make me a build which includes: 1080p monitor (doesn't need to be huge), And a potential to overclock.

TL;DR I need a build within $800-850 Aus that can run Skyrim(With graphical mods), Arma 3, DayZ, And GTA 5 well.

Looks great, Thank you so much!
Is there any possibilities that some of the components can be downgraded to a cheaper price to make room for an OS? And if so, What windows version would you recommend to get the best bang for my buck?
 


Here you go done few adjustments any thing below gtx 760 or R9 270x and you cannot enjoy most of the modern games at high - ultra settings.
