For anyone who has time to help me if at all possible building a PC strictly for gaming, or maybe help with a list of components for a gaming PC with this budget i would very much appreciate it. Really want something that could play H1Z1 and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds very well. I should be buying parts within the next month or two. And i want the best parts you may recomend for the price. Ive always been a console gamer but its time to graduate to the big league. Thanks very much.
 
Here's a suggested ~$2500 gaming PC build (including monitor and OS; excluding keyboard, mouse, and speakers/headset):

Couple different items you can switch out all depends on your preference. PSU can handle SLI with excess room for overclocking, reduce to a 650W PSU if you dont want to SLI. If you want to OC to the extreme or make sure the system is running cool at all times switch out the cooler to a closed liquid system. Case is a personal preference find one that you like if you don't like the style I picked. Choose your own mouse and keyboard to fit your tastes as well if needed. If you wish to save money switch to an i5 and reduce the motherboard. The difference between i5 and i7 is minimal and some see it not worth it but I would still get the i7 if I were you.
