Hi ladies and gentlemen of tom's hardware.
I would like to build a new rig, as of june 2016, with recent specs ,
my budget would be 750 usd, and wouldn't mind overspending a little on the graphics or the cpu side. Do let me know, what system specs would be best for this, i would also be gaming on this rig besides doing everyday stuff, games like overwatch or in the future battle field one.
Thanks a bunch

Wait until the end of the month and get the RX 480 coming out for $200 with close to Fury level performance.

Would recommend to wait for benchmarks of AMD RX 480 and NVIDIA GTX1070 and compare them. If there is no big difference in them I would recommend you to go with Hlsgsz build. If there is big difference in benchmarks then collect $100 more and go for my build.

I think that is best picked by OP, as it's subjective. Left room in the budget for it, though :)
