I'am not new to PC building but I need some help. I'm currently going to build a new PC from scratch and I also have the experience of building my old one. I need help figuring out what a good build would be in the price range of about 1000-1100$. This is only the parts NOT the peripherals or accesories.

Thanks,

I agree with this list. Very similar build and runs all games flawlessly. Question, how good is that RAM? I have old 1600mhz ram and Im looking to upgrade.
