Hey guys, I am new to the forums. I am currently trying to build a new computer. I have around $1200-1500 including tax. Could you guys recommend builds that would get me the most for my money. I currently play at 1080 resolution. As for GPU, I do not care much for SLI/Crossfire. I think one good GPU would do the trick.

Sorry, I have updated the question. Thanks for the help!

Approximate Purchase Date: within next week or so.

Budget Range: 1200-1500 after taxes

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Mostly for gaming and movie watching.

Parts Not Required: I dont need computer mouse or keyboard, nor sound system.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I use newegg a lot and pick up cheaper parts near my area. (westminster, ca) I usually go to micro center/frys.

Country: USA, California, Westminster (Orange county)

Parts Preferences: by brand or type: I would like to use intel chip, neither fan of nvidea or AMD. I would like to us mostly name brand for the parts, Asus, Corsair, etc etc. I would like a midrange case, not full size one.
