Just looking to build a gaming PC for $700, the build NEEDS to have the following:

- 8GB of RAM, 1600 mhz

- 1TB HDD (No SSD)

- CD player

- Nvidia Graphics Card, GTX 760 (EVGA prefered)

- Intel i5 Processor, IF WITHIN BUDGET, i7 Processor

If this is easily do-able with under $700, feel free to use a bit more $ for a better case or better RAM.

Thank you very much for your help.

NOTE: The actual budget is $800, but I want you to only use $700, the rest of the $100 is for tax and shipping costs.

Why dddo you want the 760 over maybe the 960?

You definately should aim for that 960,[strike] it will get you further in the long run[/strike], and it's basically the same price.

EDIT: I have just found out that the 960 is just like a 760 with lower power consumption.

It's not quite what we all wanted but it is still better.
