I have never built a computer and i have have been told its easy but im not sure, if i do end up buying the parts and building it i was wondering if the 1450$ build out of these is a good choice http://www.gamingbuilds.com/30/com

8GB is just as good for gaming...
mid towers are good too
you could get away with 600W easily

are you at all familiar with the internals of a computer?
it's not hard, but it can be a daunting thing if you don't know what goes where

youtube and google have many good articles on how to build a computer (newegg did a series actually)

Thanks man if i do end up trying to build one ill definetly research it a lot before i do but if i were just to buy those parts do you think it would be good?

i would go for 8GB, a mid tower, and a 600W psu to save money but yeah, those parts are good... though at this point it would probably be better to go for a i7 3770k, z77 mobo, and a GTX 680.. though i can't guarantee that will meet the same budget listed

Skip the 3770K for gaming and put the money towards something else, or just save it for later. Get the 3570K instead. I never felt that budgets HAD to be maxed out...
