So I want to build a gaming pc that will be able to run all the new titles smoothly with virtually no lag. The problem I am having is fitting it into my budget of around $800. Another problem I run into when picking parts out online is that they do not match the prices in stores where ill need to buy the parts for this rig.

so to sum everything up... I need help picking out good enough parts for under $800 that can handle the new released titles such as bf4, crisis and other games, smoothly. Thank you for your help :)
