Hi,
I'm in the market for a new computer that will be able to run most modern games. After doing some research, I decided its probably best for me to source the parts and build it myself. I understand how computers work, I'm just a little lost when it comes to current specs.
So basically I want to build a gaming pc, and I need a little advice as to what parts to buy. I'm looking to spend around $800CAD if possible.

- I5-3570K CPU
Total = $940 with shipping
Like I said, I'm a little behind on specs. How does this stuff look. Is there anyway I can save a bit of money here?
