Hello everyone, I am looking to for help on my very first build. I am looking for a build that will allow me to play most games at 1080p and 60fps on at least high settings. I also need one that will allow me to do my school work, as I will begin my computer engineering major in the fall. I will be building this PC sometime in July and would like help on what to put together. I would like for the video card to be 4GB, so please keep that in mind. One more HUGE thing that I need help with is that I will be buying the parts from Best Buy, so it would be amazing if you could get all of the parts from there. I would really appreciate it.

PLEASE HELP I REALLY NEED TO FIND ALL THE PARTS FROM BEST BUY.

Because my mom has a credit card which will allow her to pay it off for 12 months without interest plus 10% off the purchase

Doesn't matter. Just wait until BB stocks the RX 480.

Do you think they will have it by Mid to Late July, maybe even early August?

EDIT: I forgot to mention I wont be needing an OS, and I just talked to a Best Buy Representative who said they no longer have RX 480, so do you think i should just get a EVGA GTX 970 instead of the RX 480?

The RX is coming uot on the 29th so they will probably stock it before you build. Don't buy a 970. The 480 is worth the wait.
I've updated the build considering you don;t need an OS: you get a bigger SSD for your games :)

Then add the OS. Usually you can get a key for 25$. It's not worth it to get s whole thing.
