Buillding a Gaming PC, Need Assistance

[jasonx05x]

Hello,

I am trying to Build a Great Gaming pc for just under $1,000. Trying to Play Final Fantasy 14 on highest setting, and as some of you know the graphics are SICK on that game. Anyone know a good build?

I won't be the first to recommend this but as far as CPU and graphics go I'd say get an intel i5 2500k paired with a 560 ti would go a long ways at under 1080p, but FF14 would probably run at 1080p on them.

2500k:

For the motherboard, go with the ASROCK Extreme 3 Gen , here it is:

and frion cooling for a decent price?

Need to recharge your older car's air conditioning system?
For cooling a gaming PC's CPU something like a CoolerMaster Hyper 212+ Evo does just fine.
(and doesn't cause holes in the ozone layer right over your house)
